Glow 20.5 Beauty Dish

I ordered this item back in back in August, and when the item was delivered it was dented in two places. I immediately called Adorama and they immediately arranged a return and replacement which I was impressed with. Several days later the replacement was delivered and when I opened the box it was broken screws were missing. I once again contacted the customer service at Adorama and they arranged an overnight delivery and extra padding, because I needed the modifier for a shoot. I received the second replacement, and to my dismay the 2nd replacement was Broken as well this one the screws were broken off. I am not sure if I should just choose another beauty dish. ??

Beauty Dish Review

I couldn't give this 5 stars because my products were received in complete disarray. The screws, wing nuts, threads, and tubes were thrown into my box. Some of the tubes were already screwed in and upon totally assembling my product I found that whoever assembled it had put the wrong screws in. The screws come in two different sizes. The small screws are for the deflector plate and the tubes. The large screws are to screw in the black ring, and the Bowens mount bracket, with wing nuts). So after assembling the first time I realized whoever assembled it half way before I got it had put the long screw into the tubes. You'll probably have to assemble one of these products to understand fully what I'm saying. Good luck since there is no manual. I had to call Adorama to find out there isn't actually a manual for this product. So I was talked through putting it together on the phone. The representative was very patient with me, so I feel bad even writing this review, but I feel like these things need to be fixed. This "oversight" took a good bit of my time. I then discovered I'm missing a thread, so my product doesn't feel completely stable. I hope they will follow up and send this to me soon. Photos to show how my product was received. I did take a few photos with the dish and they look beautiful, so it seems the only issues are quality control.

Fantastic beauty dish

Another great product from Adorama’s Glow line. This beauty dish is very well made love how solid it is compared to other beauty dish I have had. The versatility of this beauty dish makes it a great choice for me. It has the ability to change the mount adapter which is great for me I can use it on my PCB Einstein and my Flashpoint AD 600. It also has two plates. A solid plate to block the light and bounce back into the dish and the second is like a grid that bounces and allows light to pass throw add a little more light to your subject.

Works perfect

Just imagine capturing striking portraiture and fashion images with the Glow 20.5" White Softlight Beauty Dish Reflector. This professional-grade light modifier is renowned for its unique diffusion properties, achieved through a double reflector system. The resulting effect is a blend between a direct flash and a softbox, creating a wraparound look that is dreamy yet contrasted, and delivers a natural feel to your images.

The white finish of this beauty dish reflector gently enhances output, creating contrast that brings out the intricate details of your subject. It's designed to mount onto a wide variety of studio flash and monolights, offering versatility through the use of separately purchased speedrings.

The 20.5" White Softlight Beauty Dish Reflector is ideal for head and shoulders portraits, dramatic half-figure studies, or subjects in tight spaces where softboxes and umbrellas may not be suitable. This professional version of the dish includes two deflector plates. The first plate acts as the original beauty dish design concept, preventing direct light from hitting the subject and creating a softer light than a standard reflector. The second plate is porous, allowing a small degree of direct but disbursed light to enhance the lighting mix.

An adjustable mid reflector cap allows you to control the spread of light to the large bowl, accommodating unusually tall or high wattage modeling lights. The included diffusion fabric panel, known as a "sock," fits snugly over the rim of the dish, tempering the ring of focused light and resulting in softer shadow edges.

Photographers across genres, from glamour to sports, utilize the Glow 20.5" White Softlight Beauty Dish Reflector for its ability to sculpt facial features, create beautiful shadows and catchlights, and enhance curves, muscles, and texture. When arranged in a vertical tower array, the beauty dish can accentuate more of the model's full figure.

The interior of the Glow Beauty Dish is available in two coatings. The silver finish delivers higher output and more contrast, while the pure white interior version minimizes hot spots and smoothes skin tone. The optional Glow 30 Degree honeycomb grid offers further control of the light source's beam, feathering the hard light for an attractive shadow and adding high key depth for fashion images.

In essence, the Glow 20.5" White Softlight Beauty Dish Reflector with Bowens Mount Adapter is a versatile, effective tool for photographers seeking to elevate their lighting game and produce high-quality, professional images.
