I measured mine (Glow part number GLRFG710) at 6 9/16" outside diameter. It fits the standard reflector that came with my Flashpoint Xplor 600 TTL (I cannot speak for the Pro model). It fits good. The inside diameter of my reflector measures 6 3/4". I have 3 tabs of Velcro inside the step on my reflector because I use another DIY accessory that needed it. This grid fits even with the Velcro in there but is very snug. there is a leaf spring on the side of the grid that keep tension on it so it should stay in place even without the velcro. I could not detect any light leak around the edge when looking at the background the light was aimed at. The 10 degree is a fairly tight pattern. I estimate the size of the patter to be about 3 feet across at about 20 feet from the subject. The fall off starts nicely with a noticeable beginning point but it doesn't have a sharp edge. I use an Xplor 600 for bounced fill lighting in larger room at wedding receptions. I had hoped to use the grid to keep the flash off of the walls and keep it from directly reaching parts of the room. That's not going to work well because the grid cuts too much power when bouncing. But when metered directly in the middle of the pattern, I only found about 1 stop of loss. This will work great for lighting the couple at their table during speeches. It will also work great for lighting backgrounds behind portrait subjects.

Excellent for pinpointing light. Super easy to add or remove from reflector.

just what I needed! I order a set of grid before that were 30, 40, 50, 60 but the 10º grid is perfect for just a kiss of light spread. Grids have become my favorite light modifier. Happy shooting everyone!

Works fine. Although I do wish there was a standard on 7? reflectors. It?s hard to get match for your individual reflector. I have a godox, and the ones marked as compatible with godox don?t fit. Same with my interfit and alien bees reflectors. A 7? reflector isn?t that unique for them to all require different grids

Great for controlling and directing light right where you want and how much. The complete set is a must.

These are a great addition to anyones strobist kit. The only downside I've had and seen the reviews on here is the fact that the little spring tab to keep the grids in the reflectors will slip out because there is nothing for it to grip on. Had to use gaffers tape to keep them from sliding out of the reflector when shooting down on a subject.

I purchased the set rather than this individual grid. The set included 40, 30, 20 and 10 degree grids, and they all are made the same way. I initially purchased the Flashpoint XPLOR 600 Replacement Standard 7" Reflector (Bowens Mount), but later ordered the Studio Essentials Standard 7" Reflector. The Flashpoint reflector has a knockout for an umbrella shaft, but it didn't seem to be as well built as the Studio Essentials reflector. Both reflectors have a lip about 1/2" inside. These grids worked well in either reflector. The spring held them tightly enough that I had no fear of them dropping out even if the light was pointed straight down. There is a little slop, but I didn't see any leakage around the grids.

There are a lot of mixed reviews for Adorama and this being my first experience with them, I was pleasantly surprised. I purchased a 10 and 20 degree 7 inch reflector grids for my White Lightening studio strobes. They fit perfectly even though they are not exactly 7 inches in diameter, but neither are my reflectors. The outer diameter is about 6.5 inches They seem to be well made and reasonably priced.

For professional photographers and videographers seeking to enhance their artificial lighting techniques, the Glow 40-degree honeycomb grid for 7" reflector is an indispensable tool. Crafted with precision, this durable and versatile grid is designed to fit securely onto the rim of a 7" reflector, providing a high level of control over the light source's beam.
When placed over the reflector's aperture, this high-quality grid effectively feathers hard light, creating attractive, nuanced shadows. Its 40-degree angle offers mild directionality, which can be leveraged to add depth to high-key fashion images, or to emphasize facial features such as the eyes, lips, nose, and chin in portrait photography.
The stylish matte black finish of the Glow 40-degree honeycomb grid not only adds a professional aesthetic but also aids in creating a spotlight effect with defined borders of shadow falloff. This feature helps eliminate light spill from the subject's body and the background, ensuring a clean, focused illumination.
Beyond its primary function, this grid also opens up creative possibilities for achieving interesting background effects, casting unique shadows, projecting colors, and creating edge lighting. Whether you're capturing stunning portraits or creating dynamic video content, the Glow 40-degree honeycomb grid for 7" reflector from Adorama is a valuable addition to your lighting equipment.
