Westcott 2021 Overview

This is a 60" White Satin Umbrella with Removal Black Cover. Umbrellas soften, broaden, and diminish the light output of any tungsten or flash light source. Umbrellas with a white interior will soften and weaken light more than an umbrella with a silver lining. A white umbrella without a black backing may also be used as a makeshift softbox, although the use of the light will not be as efficient as with a lightbox.

Choosing umbrella size is determined by the size of the subject, and the strength of the light supply being used. Choosing an umbrella surface is as subjective as choosing a paint and brush.

Westcott umbrellas are measured tip to tip across the arch of the umbrella.

Westcott umbrellas are rated safe for use with hot lights up to 1000 Watts.
This size is perfect for a 3 person full length shot, or a 4x8 size still-life setup.

question

is there is any Softlighter 60 to add to the umbrela? like - Photek Softlighter II Umbrella (60 )?
Asked by: Sigel E.
The light is nice and soft for an umbrella, but the tiny metal hinge points near the fabric are so weak and break easily. I like that it has the fiberglass rods, but the durability of the rods is pointless if the metal components break. I'm 50/50 on this product.

question

Do you think the SB-700 is enough flash for this umbrella?
Asked by: Joseph Flores
I have this umbrella and an SB-700 and I use it regularly as a main light in a small studio. For this it works just fine, If you want to light a large space or a large group of people you might need to have two 700 in the umbrella or a studio light.
