Impact UBBW45 Overview

This is an Impact 45" Convertible umbrella with white satin and removable black backing. Umbrellas soften, broaden, and diminish the light output of any 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 softbox.

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.

This size is perfect for a 1 - 2 person half-length portrait, or a 3x4 ft product setup.

Backing may be removed half way, providing a unique combination of light bounced from different surfaces.

Impact UBBW45 Reviews

It's big, well made and bounces light!

Had to shoot a bunch of dancers in a run & gun scenario. Stuck it on an 11' light behind me with strobe at full power and those darned dancers were well lit, albeit a bit flat, wherever they pranced around. I think it would be good too for closer up fashion, although a 72 might be even better. Shoot thru or bounce those electrons. I like Impact gear. Good price and good quality.

For simplicity, mobility, and ease of use, satin umbrellas make work easier. The removable black backing can come off on it's own, and I rarely take it off to shoot through. But these are nice umbrellas for the money.

The product overview says the black cover can be removed halfway, however the reviewer comments seem to imply the black cover can be removed completely. Can anybody please clarify?
Asked by: Carlos
yeah, it comes off completely. Black backing lays over the umbrella, and small sleeves on the corners of the backing insert into the metal spar-tips of the umbrella, stretching it over the white umbrella.
