Are you a professional photographer seeking to capture striking portraiture and fashion images The Glow 28" Silver Beauty Dish for Broncolor Pulso Mount is an exceptional light modifier renowned for its unique diffusion properties achieved through a double parabolic reflector system. This innovative design creates a blend of direct flash and softbox effects, delivering a wrap-around look that combines the softness of a softbox with the contrast and directed beam of a flash. The silver finish of this beauty dish enhances output, accentuates contrast, and brings out the intricate details of your subject. This versatile accessory is compatible with most brands of studio flash and monolights, attaching via speedrings that are sold separately.
The 28" Silver Beauty Dish is perfect for a wide range of photography needs, from head and shoulder portraits to dramatic full-figure studies. It's especially useful in tight spaces where traditional softboxes and umbrellas may not be effective. The design features a small opaque reflective cover suspended over the light source, preventing direct light from hitting the subject. Instead, light bounces off the interior disk and floods the larger bowl of the beauty dish, creating a softer light than a standard reflector and reducing the harshness of a speedlight. The position of the center reflector cap is adjustable, allowing you to control the spread of light and accommodate tall or high wattage modeling lights.
The beauty dish also comes with a diffusion fabric panel, or "sock", which softens the ring of focused light, lowers contrast, and softens shadow edges. The Glow 28" Silver Beauty Dish is a favorite among glamour and sports photographers, who use it to enhance curves, muscles, and texture. The larger 28" diameter model can produce a beam with more 'reach', scattering more focused light to treat larger subjects and areas. The interior of the Glow Beauty Dish is available in two coatings. The silver finish delivers higher output, creates more contrast, and brings out more detail than its white counterpart.
The pure white interior version minimizes hot spots, smoothes skin tone, and reveals less texture. For photographers seeking more control over their light source's beam, the optional Glow honeycomb grid is a must-have accessory. It covers the aperture of the reflector, feathers the hard light for an attractive shadow, and offers varying degrees of effect from a broad 40-degree soft pool of light with little spill, to a narrow 20-degree spotlight glow with defined shadow borders. In summary, the Glow 28" Silver Beauty Dish for Broncolor Pulso Mount is a versatile, high-quality lighting accessory that adds dimension and tactile sensation to your visual experience, making it an essential tool for any professional photographer's arsenal.
