Ideal for overhead use on a boom or as a fill light, the omni-directional RA-L65 Lantern Softbox from SmallRig can also be used to elevate the ambient light level. This allows you to use more focused instruments and light specific areas of your live action scene, interview setup, or product photography, while maintaining an overall ambient exposure level on set. The soft output of the light boosts light levels, lifting your set out of darkness without casting shadows in the same way a key light can.
Increasing the ambient light levels allows your talent to move throughout the scene more naturally, without being plunged into darkness, while still allowing you to create strong lighting effects. An included cloth skirt easily attaches to the softbox for controlling spill, keeping it off walls for example, and creating more contrast where you want it.
- The diffusion fabric creates smooth omni-directional soft light, without affecting the color or the CRI rating of your fixture's output.
- The lantern softbox features a Bowens speed ring, making it compatible with a large variety of light fixtures for stills and video.
- The included 4-section fabric skirt can be easily attached to control spill.
- The diffusion material attaches securely to the speed ring, making setup and breakdown quick and easy.
