Take your photography to the next level with the Glow 17" Silver Beauty Dish for Profoto Mount, a renowned light modifier cherished by professional photographers for its ability to create captivating portraiture and fashion images. This high-quality, silver beauty dish utilizes a unique double parabolic reflector system to achieve its distinctive diffusion properties. The final effect of this professional-grade beauty dish is a harmonious blend of a direct flash and a softbox. It delivers a wrap-around look similar to a softbox but with enhanced contrast and a more dramatic, directed beam. The shiny silver finish not only amplifies output but also accentuates contrast and brings out the intricate details of your subject.
Designed to mount onto most brands of studio flash and monolights, this 17" beauty dish requires speedrings for attachment, which are sold separately. Its large diameter makes it ideal for head and shoulders portraits, dramatic figure studies, or subjects in tight spaces where traditional softboxes and umbrellas may not be suitable. The Glow 17" Silver Beauty Dish features a small opaque reflective cover suspended directly over the light source, preventing direct light from hitting the subject. The light then bounces off the small interior disk and floods the larger bowl of the beauty dish, resulting in a softer, wider cast of light than a standard reflector and far superior to the harshness of a speedlight.
An adjustable center reflector cap allows you to control the spread of light to the large bowl and accommodate tall or high wattage modeling lights. Included with the beauty dish is a diffusion fabric panel, or "sock, " which softens the ring of focused light, lowers contrast, and softens shadow edges. The Glow 17" Silver Beauty Dish is a favorite among glamour and sports photographers for its ability to sculpt facial features, create beautiful shadows and catch lights, and enhance curves, muscles, and texture. The optional Glow honeycomb grid can be used to gain more control of the light source's beam and feather the hard light for an attractive shadow, making it a powerful tool for any photographer.
Whether you're shooting in a studio or on location, the Glow 17" Silver Beauty Dish for Profoto Mount is a versatile, high-quality addition to your photography equipment that will help you achieve stunning, professional results.
