101.6cm Black/Silver Large Umbrella Photography Studio (Qty 10)

A straightforward, hard-working light modifier: the PIXAPRO 101.6cm (40-inch) bounce umbrella has a silver reflective interior with a black outer cover. You point your light away from the subject and the silver lining throws it back as a broad, soft source with a little extra sparkle — flattering for portraits without losing contrast, while the black backing stops stray spill from bouncing around your studio. Each umbrella opens on a lightweight eight-spoke metal frame with an 8mm shaft, so it slots into the umbrella mount of most speedlites, studio strobes, LED and fluorescent heads. The nylon canopy is built to take regular use, and the whole thing collapses down small enough to live in a kit bag. This is a pack of ten — enough to equip a whole studio, a classroom or a rental setup in one go, with spares on the shelf. If you shoot portraits against painted canvas, a pair of these as key and fill is one of the quickest ways to get soft, even light across both subject and backdrop.
