Questions & Answers

Shopper : when ordering something like this do they come with instructions or do you just figure it out?DIMITRY L : For this product u do not need any instruction. For folding experience go to their site or youtube.CHARLES H : There are lots of great videos on the Lastolite website on instruction for the product and creative lighting.FRANK M : There are some info pictures on the outside of the case. I use mine to diffuse bright sunlight and as a reflector.JAC C : I dont believe there were instructions, but if you pay attention to how it folds when you first take it out of its storage case, its real easy then. You tube has a few video's as well. Its quite easy once you do it once...but it pretty frustrating until then..MATTHEW D : The tri grip is very simple. It's very intuitive.DAVID S : You just figure it outCHRIS T : They don't come with instructions as there are an insanely high number of options on how they can be used. The product is another tool to help you shape the light in your photo. If you want to learn about using lighting modifiers, there are lots of resources available. Adorama has a lot of useful information on their website.FRED V : The item comes with basic instructions. But this is an item that you just take out of the box and it is ready to go...TREVOR M : I dont remember mine coming with any instructions, but its pretty easy you pull it out of the case, grab the handle, let go of everything else and it unfolds. you place it between your subject and the light and you get nice diffused light. when done hold the handle and grab the diffuser in the other hand on the opposite side, push together while twisting and it folds back up to store in the case.JULIO B : I don't remember coming with instructions. However it's really easy figure how to put back in the back, and how to use it. You can check out some videos on youtube on how to use it. Nonetheless. it's an amazing product and worth the money.TERRI J : It really doesn't need instructions, when you take it out of it's carrying case, it pops open and is ready to use. I love mine.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?PHYLLIS S : for macro work and compactERNIE F : A very easy to use field item.RON C : I got this to help modify mid-day sunlight when taking portriats of my grand kids. I think that I have used it twice. Works OK but selecting a better time of day or setting is probably the way to go - particularly when working alone.

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.

Works great until the handle breaks

Used the reflector for a few sessions. Then the handle went snap and popped off the thing. It's still usable, but not what I bought. Lastolite won't even answer my complaint.

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.

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!

By Wayne W.

I would recomend this to anyone, professional or novice. I hate the harsh sunlight and dark shadows that ruin the pictures when shooting in direct sun. This is a permanant part of my equipment bag. Just in case your not sure, unlike relectors you hold this directly between the sun and your subject, it filters out the sunlight and gives you a nice even light on the subject. No more squinting from the model or harsh shadows or streaks of light. One thing you should know, because of it's si...

Awesome!

By Marko

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.

Measuring approximately 30" on each side, the TriGrip is perfectly sized for a variety of lighting setups. It's not just the shape that's customizable; this diffuser is also available in a range of color options including Gold/White, Sunfire/Silver, and Silver/White, providing versatility to match different lighting conditions and creative preferences.
