The V860III Single Light Budget Portrait Photography Kit has been designed as a cost-effective way to achieve high-quality portraits with one light source, inspired by Richard Bradbury's Budget Portrait Flash Recommendations. The V860III Speedlite is a High-Capacity 7.2V/2600mAh Speedlite that provides 450 Full-Powered Shots Per-Charge and an Ultra-Fast Recycling Time of up to 1.5 seconds. The X3Trigger is a 2.4GHz Radio TTL & HSS Flash Trigger allows the Speedlite to be triggered off-camera. The included 40" Translucent Umbrella with Black/Silver Cover lets the lighting bounce off the interior of the umbrella and back onto the subject, whilst the 60cm Reflector bounces the lighting back onto the subject from a different angle, for ample light coverage. All this equipment can be mounted onto the includes 240cm Air-Cushioned Stands, with the S-Type Smart Bracket and the Reflector Clamp holding the Speedlite & Reflector in place respectively. This kit is ideal for anyone interested in Portrait & Headshot Photography.

40” Umbrella
Multiple Lighting Options: The black layer of the umbrella prevents light loss while the glossy white internal surface ensures a high level of light is reflected to the subject.
Removable Backing: This Translucent Umbrella comes with a black lining that can be removed to give you a white translucent umbrella.
Durable Frame: The 40" Lighting Umbrella is made of a Nylon surface mounted on a metal frame.
60cm Reflector
5 Surfaces in 1 Reflector: The 5in1 Reflector enables you to bounce the light from your main light source to fill in any unwanted shadows. It features 2x interchangeable surfaces all of which produce different effects:
• BLACK - Absorbs light and prevents uncontrolled reflections from falling onto your subject. Perfect for when you want to increase contrast when shooting dramatic black and white portraits.
• WAVY/SOFT GOLD - wavy golden coating for fine, warm light characteristics with a light colour like the sun. It provides less gold effect than a pure gold reflector.
• SILVER - Increases contrast and highlights. Silver is great for accentuating detail and gives off the brightest reflection.
• TRANSLUCENT - Can be used either as a reflector to bounce light back at your subject or can be used as a diffuser to soften the effects of harsh light. Ideal for when you are shooting out in the midday sun.
• WHITE - Produces soft, more natural diffused light. Ideal for when you need to keep the colour temperature of the reflected light consistent with that of your ambient/main light.
240cm Air Cushioned Stand
3 Tier Extension: Making it collapsible to a height of 75cm and fully extend to 240cm.
Air Cushioned Dampening System: This helps to prevent any sudden drops to minimise the risk of damage to your equipment or causing injury to yourself.
