Great travel difflector

Great difflector. No highlights on the face. Compact and easy to travel. Assembly takes a little getting use to.

a compact dream

Not only does this collapse into a tiny and easily packed bag, fully assembled it is strong enough to hold shape while supported with one hand. Lighter and stiffer than the Lastolite tri-grips and much easier to manipulate with one hand or have mounted on various stands. A trigrip requires much more force to hold in place on a stand, the halo is lighter and easily can be positioned and locked down. Compared to traditional pop out reflectors, this takes time and patience to assemble. But the trade off is that it is an easier reflector to transport to and from the site and it is an easier reflector to position once assembled.

Awesome, super durable, packs tiny and is very useful, but slow to assemble.

Whew. After many of the pop-out reflectors with zippered covers having their zippers come off, I finally upgraded to this and I'm glad I did. Downsides is that it is NOT quick to set up, but the benefits are that it appears to be nearly indestructible, and it's packed size is far smaller than a pop-out reflector. It's also easier to hold and the mount thread in the handle is incredibly useful - it was always very annoying trying to put a pop-out reflector on a stand, but this one is a breeze.

Harsh sunlight problem solved

Lightweight, easy to use and does exactly what it is supposed to do. Salvage a harsh sunlight situation to make a much softer more diffuse light in a matter of minutes.

Best reflector to take anywhere.

Excellent reflector. Easy to assemble and occupy very little space on the bag.

Good reflector

When I first put this together I thought there was no way I was keeping it. It’s pretty stiff the first few times you assemble it. I put it together and left it a few days to let everything stretch out, that helped. I’ve been using it a lot lately and I like it. Usually, I work without an assistant so I use a nano stand with a Kupo ball head to maneuver it around. It’s not as fast to open or close as a normal reflector but easier to transport and use when you don’t have an assistant.
