The ideal reflector

Love this reflector! Terrific quality and the handle makes it so much easier to handle if I am shooting alone without an assistant. And it folds up for easy storage and packing.

Great product!

Great tool if you use natural light and need a lighting boost or to decrease heavy shadowing on faces. The handle makes it much easier to manipulate. Little awkward at first but just practice a little and enjoy the difference it makes in your images.

It works until it doesn't

It's great stuff until you collapse it and the handle falls off. At that point you have a reflector or a diffuser without a handle. It still works, but a standard round substitute for it works even better.

Excellent device

The reflector is very handy and effective in reflecting light. It's a little difficult to get it to collapse.

Exactly What I was Looking For

It's a bit heavier than I expected so it's a little awkward, but it feels very sturdy. I love the way it wraps around my hand. It's a great way to use a reflector when you don't have someone to hold it for you.

Versatile Light and Well-Made

This is the best reflector I have used for outdoor shoots and even for one-handed use. Try that with a regular circular reflector on a windy day. It is very light weight and easy to hold. I like the secure grip with the hand strap. This is a tough, well designed piece of gear that lets you get the desired lighting effect quickly. I will be getting more of these for other light effects like double fill, diffusion, blocking and warming. Folds up quickly into it's own carrying pouch.

Good Diffuser

I have a few Tri Grips. For diffusion this is the one you want. The 48 inch is large enough to soften all the sunlight hitting a portrait subject. One stop diffusion seems to be the sweet spot…providing noticeable softening but not eliminating shadows all together. At 4 ft across it is a little bit bendy / flappy in the wind and takes two hands. I have the smaller size in the reflectors - they are indispensable. The Tri Grips are very portable, fold up nice and travel easy.

You can't get along without it

Two stops of diffusion is about right in bright sunlight, and 48" is enough surface to do a really good job of spreading the softened light, even if you can't get the diffuser really, really close to your subject. Of course you can do the same thing with a big pillowcase or a bedsheet. But have you ever tried holding a bedsheet extended to 48"? The TriGrip's handle really helps. And, once you learn to do it, collapsing the diffuser to a fraction of its size so you can stuff it back into its case is a cinch. Doesn't get much better than this.

Great for bounce/shoot through

Picked this up after seeing a few pros use it. Good general size and ability to use it one handed is awesome. Travels easily. Got this one over other models as I can use it as a diffuser or a reflector/bounce outdoors or with a flash which makes it more versatile. Very easy to clamp to whatever.

Great

Tricky, but ingenious folding up. Important to fold up to store, not tear, and not get dirty. Remember it's only big enough for one or at most two faces. Not a fault, it's just the nature of light.

Lastolite 32"tri grip

I bought this a while back, and have used it many times, from bouncing light outdoors to bouncing flash indoors.

Metal inside is already bent up!!

So I just received this in the mail- haven't even used it! and the metal wiring inside of it is all bent up making it VERY difficult to fold correctly! This is the second lastolite trigrip diffuser that this has happened to me with! My last one- the client spent about 10 minutes trying to figure out how to fold it (I had even told him not to worry about it, but was persistent). Products like this should not be considered professional grade.

Excellent Tool

I love my Tri-Grip reflectors. I have the Tri-Flip kit as well and use the different sleeves all the time for the color and reflective quality I'm looking for in a shot. These are indispensable tools and will set your photography apart from the rest if you use them to your advantage.

Does the Trick

Diffuses harsh sunlight at a wide and even perspective. Softens stobe for creative affect on the subject. I own several Lastolite products, including multiple Tri Grips in various sizes. Products are durable and easily folded for compact storage or trasportation to location site.

Awesome!

My assistant loves this product. He used to have to hold a round scrim/reflector that had interchangeable surfaces that zipped on. Oh and they had no handle. He loves the velcro attachments and the how easy this is to hold. I love that I can actually hold it with one hand and shoot with the other if I need to.
