The white, 60" GoodLighter Umbrella with 7mm and 8mm Shafts from Photek is a redesigned classic umbrella with a fiberglass frame and white reflective fabric that is free from contaminates that might add an unwanted color cast to your light output.

Replacement for SoftLighter

Although it is not overtly obvious, I can confirm that this umbrella is a perfect replacement for the Photek SoftLighter Umbrella (B&H # PHSL6000FG). It includes the velcro for attaching the front silk that comes with the SoftLighter. I deducting a star because I have had about 4 of these over the last 15 years. The umbrellas are pretty fragile. However, this one has a new Fiberglass Frame, which hopefully will last longer.

How does this product differentiate from the softlighter?
Asked by: Maya
The Photek SoftLighter Umbrella with Removable 7mm and 8mm Shafts (60") includes a front diffusion panel that makes the light softer and more diffused than the light from the Photek GoodLighter Umbrella with 7mm and 8mm Shafts (White, 60").
