No doubt, the Glow EZ Lock Umbrella is the champion light modifier for everything from baby portraits to event photography. It has the power to diffuse and direct your flashes output for the soft touch. However, the open diameter just doesnt work in all situations. A small room or basement studio, low ceilings, tight quarters and crowds, throws the trusty umbrella in a fit issue.
Get the shades and tones right using the 88" Wing-Like Parabolic Fiberglass Umbrella from Glow. This flash modifier deploys in no time like regular umbrella and combines a parabolic reflecting surface with a rectangular shape to cast even illumination and accommodate compact workspace with low ceilings. For durability, strength, and lightweight, it features fiberglass rods and metal shaft with a pinch lock at the top. To give you extra options for, this tool can generate a soft white light using the white canvas, bolder shades with more contrast using inner silver coat, and a shoot-through mode. For getting the two last effects, you will need to close the umbrella halfway and remove either front white or black rear lining. For convenient storage and transport, this light modifier ships with the black soft carry bag.
