Open Box: Used Glow Grid for 8" Reflector - 20 Degree undefined

The Glow 20 degree honeycomb grid is a powerful tool in the arsenal of artificial lighting photographer. By covering the aperture of the reflector with the disk, you gain more control of a light source's beam, and feathers the hard light for an attractive shadow. This mild directionality can be used to add high key depth for fashion images, and emphasis the model facial structure as well as the eyes, lips, nose and chin. The matte black 20 degree honeycomb creates a spotlight glow with defined borders of shadow falloff, eliminates spill from the rest of the body and the background. Creative alternative uses include interesting background effects and cast shadows, color projection and edge light.  The disk simply clips onto the perimeter of the 8" reflector rim for a secure perfect fit.

Well built and does what it's supposed to do. Felt the price was fair also.

Well made and a fair price

Grids

Exactly what I need

Wondering about size?

I measured mine (Glow part number GLRFG710) at 6 9/16" outside diameter. It fits the standard reflector that came with my Flashpoint Xplor 600 TTL (I cannot speak for the Pro model). It fits good. The inside diameter of my reflector measures 6 3/4". I have 3 tabs of Velcro inside the step on my reflector because I use another DIY accessory that needed it. This grid fits even with the Velcro in there but is very snug. there is a leaf spring on the side of the grid that keep tension on it so it should stay in place even without the velcro.

I could not detect any light leak around the edge when looking at the background the light was aimed at. The 10 degree is a fairly tight pattern. I estimate the size of the patter to be about 3 feet across at about 20 feet from the subject. The fall off starts nicely with a noticeable beginning point but it doesn't have a sharp edge.

I use an Xplor 600 for bounced fill lighting in larger room at wedding receptions. I had hoped to use the grid to keep the flash off of the walls and keep it from directly reaching parts of the room. That's not going to work well because the grid cuts too much power when bouncing. But when metered directly in the middle of the pattern, I only found about 1 stop of loss. This will work great for lighting the couple at their table during speeches. It will also work great for lighting backgrounds behind portrait subjects.

Fits my Xplor 600 TTL original reflector...

Excellent for pinpointing light. Super easy to add or remove from reflector.

Pinpoint is on point

just what I needed! I order a set of grid before that were 30, 40, 50, 60 but the 10º grid is perfect for just a kiss of light spread. Grids have become my favorite light modifier. Happy shooting everyone!

A must have!

glow 20 deg grid

It is great

Works fine.  Although I do wish there was a standard on 7? reflectors.  It?s hard to get match for your individual reflector.   I have a godox, and the ones marked as compatible with godox don?t fit.   

Same with my interfit and alien bees reflectors.  A 7? reflector isn?t that unique for them to all require different grids

Good grid

GREAT! THE MORE I LEARN ABOUT LIGHT MODIFIERS, THE MORE USE I CAN FIND FOR THEM

Glow Grid for 7" Reflector - 30 Degree

Great for controlling and directing light right where you want and how much. The complete set is a must.

Must have light modifier

These are a great addition to anyones strobist kit. The only downside I've had and seen the reviews on here is the fact that the little spring tab to keep the grids in the reflectors will slip out because there is nothing for it to grip on. Had to use gaffers tape to keep them from sliding out of the reflector when shooting down on a subject.

Works great for shaping light

Provides nice narrow focus lighting pattern

Excellently shipping

Works great with my Flashpoint reflectors.

Great Grids

Love the drama. This image was done at 3pm.

soft glow grid a winner

Perfect

Bought the set 10 degree through 40 and am impressed with the build and effect on my lighting

Nice set

Nice option for light control very pleased

Great addition to my lighting kit controls the light fantastically I haven’t stopped using it

Nice

it’s all about control and shaping and these certainly help

Great light shapers

Works great in my 7” reflector. Creates a nice narrow beam of light.

Works great!

Fit perfectly and well made. Great purchase.

Glad I bought it

I purchased the set rather than this individual grid. The set included 40, 30, 20 and 10 degree grids, and they all are made the same way.

I initially purchased the Flashpoint XPLOR 600 Replacement Standard 7" Reflector (Bowens Mount), but later ordered the  
Studio Essentials Standard 7" Reflector. The Flashpoint reflector has a knockout for an umbrella shaft, but it didn't seem to be as well built as the Studio Essentials reflector. Both reflectors have a lip about 1/2" inside.

These grids worked well in either reflector. The spring held them tightly enough that I had no fear of them dropping out even if the light was pointed straight down. There is a little slop, but I didn't see any leakage around the grids.

Well built and useful

There are a lot of mixed reviews for Adorama and this being my first experience with them, I was pleasantly surprised.  I purchased a 10 and 20 degree 7 inch reflector grids for my White Lightening studio strobes.  They fit perfectly even though they are not exactly 7 inches in diameter, but neither are my reflectors.  The outer diameter is about 6.5 inches  They seem to be well made and reasonably priced.

Seven inch reflector grids

Works great I am using this grid to help focus light on products for commercial photography.
