Impact Collapsible Circular Reflector Disc - Silver/White - 42"
Alternate views of item shown

This Impact Collapsible Circular Reflector Disc is a versatile lighting tool for in the field and in the studio. It allows you to bring out the shadow detail in your subject, using available or studio lighting. In addition, the colored surface allows you to modify the color of your subject. Your choice of color -- silver or white -- will be determined by the lighting conditions, and your personal preference.

This 42" disc is suitable for a 3/4 length portrait, and a medium-size still-life setup. It folds down to 1/3 its open size, and comes with a storage sleeve. We suggest the purchase of a pivoting arm and stand, to hold the disc where needed -- especially if you are working without an assistant.

White produces an even, neutral-colored bounce light that works beautifully as a fill light source for both product shots and indoor/outdoor portraits.
Silver produces a contrasty light with an edge.
Shape Circular
Size Open 42" (106cm)
Size Collapsed 1/3 open size
Surfaces Silver, white reflective

        Study and durable. Unfolds nicely and rims are strong. Bag is slightly cheap with zipper being a big "light weight" but it does the job.

        I use the disc for outdoor portraits and as an indoor bounce. Great for both and easy to use.

          Comments about Impact Reflector Disc Silver/White - 42":

          This is a great product. Low cost, easily collapsible, portable, and just as useful as the "pro" models. Sure, for mega more bucks you could maybe get a better product, but I think you are already in the realm of diminishing marginal returns. In other words, this reflector disc will take you as far as your talent will take you. It wont be the reason you didn't get that "perfect" shot.

                    I was talked into get this by a fellow photographer and since then i have grown to love this tool. i mainly travel with a large amount of gear and lighting, but since i got this it makes the decision to leave all that and just take this a lot more compelling. It can also act as a 5th light for me which i really like. All in all this is a great product and i would suggest it to anyone who really wants to get light to hard to reach areas without bringing a lot of gear.

                      Cheap and cheerful. Does the job. Maybe not the best for heavy pro use.

                          I am just getting started and use this for low-budget independent and commercial videography. It was a simple and cheap solution to get better balanced exposure for both picture and video without breaking the bank for lighting equipment.

                            This is a great product, you get exactly what you pay for. The 42" is large but it fold down easily into its smaller holding pouch.

                              I'm very happy with this buy. Though I haven't had it long, it seems fairly durable, and has worked great. It was a little tricky to fold the first time, but after a couple folds I can do it in no time. I love that it comes with a bag, it keeps it folded, and offers a little extra protection to the reflector when not in use.

                              Over all this is a great product!

                                I use this on location to bounce light wear I need it while doing portraits. Works well, light and easy to carry in supplied carry bag. Took me a few times to fold it back up correctly to fit in carry bag.

                                    I normally do indoor and outdoor portraits. I find it absolutely essential for most work. It is convenient in size but generaly requires an assistant to hold it. It folds compactly for transport and storage. I find there are no negatives for me with this reflector.

                                        ++Good size, stiff edges, carry case, white and silver, big, inexpensive
                                        -- a little wobbly... short armed people have a hard time holding it and seeing around it without bending it when using it.
                                        -- forget it in windy conditions

                                        This reflector helps me bounce light into places where it is not available.
                                        Reduces dependency on electric lights, makes your equipment pile smaller.

                                        The best thing is how sturdy it is, made for heavy duty, even the case it comes with is well made.

                                        You might want to think of a different solution on windy days.

                                              I don't know how you can really go wrong with a reflector disc, this is everything I thought it should/would be, it's a great product.

                                                  This does exactly what it is supposed to. It reflects light evenly and is light weight and easy to fold. The product is sturdy and pretty inexpensive compared to other reflectors I've seen of the same size. It comes with a storage bag to protect it. [...]would buy again.
