I don't believe it's necessary. Despite the name, this is a reflector, not a "fashion item". It's sole purpose is to push light into the shadows rather than to give your set a life of its own You can dress things up a bit with

My model is a two handle model with a larger size. In its own right, the Frame creates a diffuse effect. In order to "sandwich" the diffused frame, there is one cover. There are 4 different ways to use this cover both sides are reversible. But whichever one you choose, there is just one side to it. *br>By turning over the reflector you may not be able to get every combination possible in a second.

Maybe it's not a good idea to have the black side facing the white part since it's mainly used to diffuse the sunlight.

It took about a week for the kit to arrive. It immediately fell apart when I opened it, and there was a small scrap of fabric piping that fell out. Until an exact location on the reflector is identified, it's not known where the manufacturer failed to stitch it securely. In addition, I saw stains and human hairs on it right away. It is disappointing that the stains are there. As a result of the manufacturer's lack of attention to hygiene, the hairs have grown in uncontrollable numbers. This is concerning. The attached photos are available for viewing. The thing that I find really amazing is it is possible for someone to sell a piece of photographic equipment to a photographer and assume they will be unaware of obvious To me the most amazing aspect of this is that someone would do so in a public place without any fear of retribution The internet is presumed to be an important medium, facing Amazon There's no point in taking pictures of it and publishing them to the world for all I find it fascinating, in the words of Science Officer Spock. Accordingly, I scored this kit with a three-star rating, giving it the benefit of the doubt it might still perform well. If the app performs better or worse than 3/5 after I use it, I'll update my review.
For more than 20 years, I have been a full-time professional photographer, but this is the first time I have seen a cheap reflector with such poor quality. You'd be able to make a much better reflector if you did it yourself. So now I just have a diffuser and will toss the outer zip up.
I have a few different sizes and different brands depending on what they cost, but I mainly use this one because your hands don't get fatigued holding one without handled, As long as I have the reflector and camera in my hand at all times, it's much easier for me to hold the reflector and camera jointly. Quality zippers, grips, and material can be found in this bag.
It won't get back into its case despite how broken it is. Idk what happened to it. tried twisted it into a figure 8 shape and then compacted it, but there is a big piece that does not fit. This definitely seems like there's a step missing in the instructions or my copy is defective. I'm not sure if this is normal or not, but mine often gets stuck instead of unfolding/popping out completely.
I found that rather than only accomplishing its normal functions, it also had an additional benefit. With this technique, it's simple to fold. My wife and I struggled a bit to fold it, but now it's a cinch. As if it were a steering wheel, grasp the reflector. Then, take one of your hands (it doesn't matter which one) and grasp the handle of the reflector from the other side, while keeping your other hand in the Making a figure 8 with both hands while twisting in opposite directions is the next step. Once you start to coil the reflector, it will begin to do so naturally.
This set of reflectors was used in an animated short film I made, "Man of My Word", which you can view on youtube by searching Rodney Mac12. The fact that they have handles and they function fairly well with light makes me feel really good about them. The items come in a zippered bag as well. My next purchase will probably be a larger size.
I highly recommend this e-book! This is a 5-pack I purchased During the kindergarten class photo shoot I did last week, I used 1 reflector set (32 inch round version). Reflectors are the first time I have used them, and boy, I wish I had purchased them earlier. Even though I enjoy photographing outdoors, I find that there are occasions where there are no controls over She's the mother of all creatures! This allows you to direct the sunlight the way you would like or to filter it It's unpredictable in the Pacific Northwest, so the weather and sunlight play a major role in the photo session. We shot right around lunchtime when the sun was out. I was able to hold the white filter up over the face of the subject and soften/disperse the harsh sunlight. Compared to before, this was a game changer. As the sun began to angle behind the subject, we also used some of the reflective sides.
Conclusion This is an outstanding addition to any outdoor photographer's kit. You get 5 different reflectors (one of which is a filter) and it is easy to use. In terms of folding it back up into the zippered case, I had no difficulty. The handles are also a nice addition.
It's standard size, and it comes with a bag, which does not feel like something that will That is to say, I Over a frame, it is made up of a bunch of cloth. There is nothing spectacular about the zippers, but they do the job. As for how it works, it does exactly what you would expect, despite the low price. The only piece of bad quality I can point out is the jack. The truth is. There is one criticism I have. When I try to twist it to put it away and fold it down, sometimes the plastic handles will pop and come undone My guess is that I'll just remove them. A metal frame holds them together and they sort of clip together. I don't know. But There is no need to buy a separate reflector if you have this one. I can't really tell if it's better or worse than its competitors. It's up to you.
