Perfect for portraits
The purpose of the concave reflector is to brighten portraits from below. It is placed in front of the model with the opening facing upwards (or at a slight angle) and illuminated from the top front with soft light (reflector sail, softbox, diffuser) so that the light is reflected from below into the subject's face. This reduces or completely eliminates the often disturbing shadows under the nose, mouth, chin, cheeks and eye sockets. On top of this, you can conjure up a bright reflection of the wide reflector surface in your subject's eyes, which looks a little like a smile.
The reflector is supplied in a handy bag. It is easy to assemble without any additional tools. A clear instruction manual helps with quick and safe assembly. The Walimex pro 3in1 Reflector Halfpipe is concave, hence the name. It has a size of 150 x 60 cm for perfect illumination of portraits. Of course, nothing stands in the way of other creative applications of the concave reflector!
3functions in one
First, the frame of the halfpipe is covered with the silver reflector fabric. With the additional reversible cover - white on one side and wavy gold on the other - you can change the silver reflector to a different color in seconds using the Velcro fastener:
wavy gold: This special coating consists of a zigzag pattern with alternating gold and silver stripes. Together they reflect the incident light and create a warm, yet bright illumination for the subject. This color is particularly suitable for skin tones, as the sunlight is also given a warmer tone. The silver component maximizes the brightness due to its strong reflectivity.
white: The classic reflector color for brightening with soft light. The light is not reflected at specific points as with silver, but loses intensity as it bounces off the reflector in a spherical shape. However, the lighting effect is similar to that of a diffuser.
silver: Guarantees maximum light output, which can work wonders, especially in poor weather conditions. However, silver is not recommended in bright sunlight or direct flash.
Tips for using the reflector Halfpipe
The reflector can be held by an assistant. This enables quick setup and rapid adjustment of the angle. However, it can also be used mounted on a stable lamp stand. This is the better solution, especially in a quiet studio atmosphere. The concave Walimex pro 3in1 Reflector Halfpipe is equipped with a high-quality central strut and a stable locking mechanism. The tilt of the reflector can be adjusted over 180 degrees, namely from -90° to +90°. This gives you maximum flexibility for your work. Due to the size of the reflector, a correspondingly stable lamp tripod is required, such as the Walimex pro classic WT-806 lamp tripod 256 cm (item no. 12138). Attention: Weigh down the lamp tripod sufficiently to ensure a secure stand.
