Walimex pro Beauty Dish Ø 40 cm Light shaper for Bowens & Walimex pro connection, reflector for soft light, ideal for portrait and beauty photography

The beauty dish was specially developed for portrait and beauty photography. Its unique design prevents the light from hitting the model directly. A centrally mounted parabolic reflector diverts the light into the large light trough. This reflects the light in the desired direction. This creates a unique characteristic when photographing. The light is emitted harder in the centre. Towards the edge, the character of the light becomes softer and softer. This guarantees a high-contrast spotlight and a soft, evenly falling gradient towards the outside.

Professional photographers like to use the properties of the beauty dish to illuminate portraits with just one lamp and still achieve optimal results. To take full advantage of the reflector's unique characteristics, the beauty dish should be positioned close to the model. The diffuser included in the set can easily be placed over the reflector. It ensures that the light is emitted even softer and that the brightness gradient is gently blended.

A large honeycomb attachment can be clipped into the reflector as an optional accessory. It ensures that stray light is reduced and that the light is more directional. With the reflector, the honeycomb attachment and the diffuser, you have an optimal set for creative freedom in your professional beauty shots.

• Safety Instructions:
  
• Risk of burns
  
• During continuous light or flash operation, the softbox, mount and flash unit may become hot. Do not touch during or immediately after operation; allow to cool before disassembly.
  
• Fire hazard
  
• Do not cover the softbox, do not block ventilation openings and keep a sufficient distance from flammable materials.
  
• Risk of falling/tipping
  
• Improperly mounted light modifiers may detach or cause light stands to tip over. Only attach to compatible flash units, check safety pins and spigot/locking mechanisms, weight down the stand (sandbag), and adjust the tilt angle so the load remains above the center of gravity.
  
• Risk of crushing
  
• Rotating and locking mechanisms may create pinch points. Proceed carefully when adjusting and avoid trapping fingers.
