Silver Interior  

The PixaPro 42cm silver beauty dish attaches to the mount on the front of your flash and encapsulates the bulb to allow light to fall on the highly reflective silver interior. This design spreads the light evenly for maximum efficiency. As the interior is silver and therefore much more reflective, the specular highlights of the subject are more pronounced and detailed, perfect for drawing out and accentuating the facial features of your subject.

Wrap Around Light

The 42cm reflector beauty dish reflects the light back onto the interior silver surface on the beauty dish, helping to cover the entire interior evenly with light, to create a light that wraps around the subject. This means that the beauty dish is an ideal modifier for portrait photography as it helps to perfectly surround the subject in light.

Contrasting Light for Feature Accentuation

Due to the shape of the PixaPro beauty dish and the fact that the light bounces around the interior, it helps create a light with more contrast compared to using a softbox. The silver interior of the beauty dish creates a cooler and more contrasting light and look compared to the softer and more natural looking light created by its white counterpart.

Round Catchlights

The round shape of the studio beauty dish lighting also helps to create pleasing catchlights in the eyes of the subject that replicates a natural light source such as the sun, making it ideal for beauty and portrait photography.

Shadow Reducing Diffuser Cap

Included with the 16.5" studio beauty dish is a diffuser cap, which simply slides over the outer edge, and this further helps to further soften the light being produced and to reduce any unwanted shadows on your subject. The extra diffusion will help the light fall more naturally onto your subject, ideal for beauty and portrait shots when you are trying to get the most accurate look from your subject.

Light Spill Reduction Honeycomb Grid

Thehoneycomb grid clips onto the outer edge of the beauty dish which helps to narrow and better angle the light source, reducing any unwanted light spill and potential loss of light.

Interchangeable Speedring

The 16.5" studio beauty dish features a unique and revolutionary design feature that allows this to be used with a wide range of different flashes thanks to the interchangeable speedring. The compatible speedrings available for the beauty dish includes Bowens, Hensel, Elinchrom, Broncolor, Multiblitz and Profoto. (Please select your prefence in the dropdown box when purchasing). If you have a wide range of different brand flashes, you can simply purchase the necessary speedring to connect your softbox to the mount of your flash units, making this a cost effective and high-quality solution to any modifier requirements.

High-Quality Aluminium 

The high-quality aluminium construction of the beauty dish is strong and durable, helping to create a dependable modifier that will keep working well for the foreseeable future, ideal for studio-based photography. It requires no further construction or assembly as it simply attaches directly to the mount of your flash, reducing any unnecessary loss of time during your shoot.
