A well-made umbrella modifier at a great price!

A versatile, well-made umbrella at a great price. I would rate the quality on par with Westcott or other brands that produce umbrellas for photography applications. I appreciate durability and features for a good to great price. Portable studio modifiers can suffer greater exposure to elements that wear them and tear them up, even when a photographer is careful with those modifiers. So, it doesn't make much sense to me to overspend on lighting modifiers. The appropriate approach, imo, is to find the balance between quality and cost and invest in there. Glow hits that balance for me. I have used this umbrella on multiple occasions and I have been pleased with the quality and performance of the umbrella. It's slightly smaller than the 70" Westcott umbrella I own, but performs just as admirably. I'd recommend you consider it.

Great umbrella

This umbrellas actually lays flat when closed which makes it easy to fit in my rolling cart. It feels very strong when opened.

Great Umbrella, Perfect for portraits, inside and out.

Love the pebble textured surface. It's like profoto without the cost. The material could be a little thicker, but I'm sure that's why the price point is where it is.

Decent Enough

It fits. While very thin and wrinkly, it does diffuse the light enough to create a soft box effect, only requiring more feathering than a traditional softbox would. The appearance is semi shoddy in front of clients to be honest, but it works and it's cheap.

Fabric is great and diffuses light effectively around subject

The fabric is perfect for diffusing light. The light wraps around the subject very well and produces a very professional ambient light. The only thing that I could criticize about this model type from Glow is the stem. It feels very thin and hollow. With the umbrella open, holding the end of the stem, you really see the stem bending. In most cases, you're probably not going to mount the stem as you see in the picture but if you do, I can see it bending if you have the stem parallel to the floor or perpendicular to the mounting support. I am using this in the studio but I think if you were to use it outdoors, perhaps consider something with a stronger stem. Other than that, it opens and closes easily. It doesn't change the hue of light. Overall, the function of this umbrella is great. Just be aware of the stem.

Great quality of light with the diffuser

my favorite modifier so far. Easy to use with the diffusion face, quick setup and can do full length portraits if needed. IMages were awesome, i can use it with the deep parabolic or by itself if needed.

Soft, Evenly Dispersed Lighting.

I have had an opportunity to use this umbrella on a couple of shoots. In one instance I set up a photo booth using this umbrella and AD200 as main light, Nikon D750 on a tripod and a remote trigger. The set-up worked flawlessly all night and guests ended up with fantastic portraits and small group shots. This umbrella delivered soft, evenly dispersed lighting.

Great Deep Umbrella Modifier. It really did what it was sent out to do. Definitely worth the money and it's also serves at different ranges as focused light modifier by pulling the umbrella closer to the light (strobe).

Love it.

By Ruben M.

This is the best modifier for anyone who shoots with a flash. It's light, it's easy and it's almost idiot proof. You can't beat an umbrella as far as setup, ease of use, light weight and simple. I love using umbrellas. I have a 7 foot but it was too big for indoors so I got this one. Since it's deep the light is a bit more directional than a standard one. Silver really makes the image pop.

What sets the Glow EZ Lock 51" Deep Umbrella apart is its sophisticated parabolic design, which ensures an efficient and even distribution of light, perfect for photographers seeking to create stunning visual effects. The umbrella's beaded silver interior is meticulously crafted to produce specular highlights that are nothing short of magnificent, enhancing sharp details and providing brilliant indirect lighting with soft shadow definition. This makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of photographic styles, from high-fashion shoots to intimate portraiture.

The umbrella's robust construction features a reliable EZ Lock system that eliminates the common frustrations associated with traditional umbrellas. This user-friendly locking mechanism is designed to encircle the shaft, offering a smooth glide for opening and a wide button for a quick and effortless release. The fiberglass frame ribs add to the umbrella's durability, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of frequent use while remaining lightweight for easy handling.

The large 51-inch size of the Glow EZ Lock Deep Umbrella is particularly effective for illuminating subjects nearly full-length, providing maximum light output and greater reach for creating dramatic contrasts. Its deep shape is more than just aesthetically pleasing; it serves a functional purpose by conforming closely to a parabolic sphere, which amplifies the efficiency of light power projection.

Photographers will appreciate the thoughtful design that includes a fitted, durable fabric pouch for protection during transport and storage, a significant improvement over traditional plastic casings that are prone to cracking. The Glow EZ Lock Deep Umbrella is not just a light modifier; it's a versatile tool that quickly becomes an essential part of any photographer's kit, offering the convenience of a compact, quick setup and the ability to produce soft, flattering light with ease.

In summary, the Glow EZ Lock 51" Deep Umbrella is a stylish, high-quality, and functional choice for professionals who demand the best in portable light control. Its unique combination of a deep parabolic shape, easy locking mechanism, and durable construction makes it a versatile and indispensable asset for capturing the perfect shot.
