This is a Photoflex 52" (132cm), Soft Gold/White Opaque LiteDisc collapsible reflector. Photoflex LiteDiscs and MultiDiscs are designed for use in the studio, or on location. They add light to shadow areas, add or subtract color casts, or diffuse harsh light.

LiteDiscs come in a variety of sizes: 12, 22, 32, 42, 52" circular, and 41 x 74" Oval.
MultiDiscs are available in 22, 32 and 42" circular sizes. MultiDiscs start as a White Translucent disc, with a reversible slipcover that provides white, silver, gold and soft gold surfaces.

Pick the size that is right for the size of your subject. Pick the color combination that is right for the ambient light, or your creative direction.

Each LiteDisc has a sturdy spring-steel frame that is covered by a heavy duty white fabric. With a twist of both wrists (and a little practice), they collapse to 1/3 their open sizes. Each comes with a nylon storage bag.

Insure consistency and ease of placement by ordering a LiteDisc Holder. The holder, combined with a light stand, acts as a second pair of hands, locking the disc in the exact desired position. The holder also helps your assistant hold the disc flat and steady, especially in outdoor breezes.

Sturdy Construction
Guaranteed flat to create smooth, even reflections and give you control over your light source
  • Double laminated to prevent light from going through the surface, giving you more reflection on your subject
  • Double riveted for added strength to prevent breaking and maintain the firm shape of the Disc
Flat or Bent
  • Position the disc flat for an even fill
  • Bend the disc slightly for a more concentrated fill effect
Available LiteDisc Colors and Functions
  • White Opaque - Produces an even, neutral-colored bounce light that works beautifully as a fill light source for both product shots and indoor/outdoor portraits
  • Silver - Silver increases the specular highlights and yields a high-contrast, neutral to cool fill, depending on your main light source
  • Gold - Same as silver, but with a warm tone -- best used outdoors near sunrise or sunset
  • Soft Gold - Combination of gold and silver in a zebra pattern, with a semi-matte surface -- best for all-round fill
  • White Translucent - Softens harsh light sources, may also be used as a reflector
  • Black - Subtracts reflected light and color casts from intense backgrounds
Note: See product description for specific colors included on each disc.

        The soft gold throws a lot of light. This is a big reflector, so if you're shooting outside on a windy day hang on. It packs up easily and carries easily.

        Comments about Photoflex LiteDisc Circular Reflector, Soft Gold/White Opaque, 52" (132cm):

        Beautifully soft light whether soft gold or white
        Has the potential to reflect a lot of soft light.
        Able to feather light easily.
        The 52" is prone to be a sail when it is windy.
        Makes using flash almost unnecessary.
        Reflects a lovely colour light.

        You need an assistant who understands lighting to direct its position to ensure the light doesn't slam the model's face!

        Comments about Photoflex LiteDisc Circular Reflector, Soft Gold/White Opaque, 52" (132cm):

        I use it for a bounce when shooting portraits of children. It is large enough to cover them head to toe. The soft gold side gives an excellent warm glow to the skin. Make sure you have plenty of space around you when you open it, 'cause it can get violent if you're not careful! Highly recommended.
