Photoflex Umbrella with Adjustable Ribs - White with Black Backing - 30"
Key Features
  • Permanent Black Backing
  • 8mm Shaft
The Photoflex 30" White Reflective Adjustable Umbrella is unique. Its ribs can be shifted to change the shape of the umbrella from round to square. Why? If you are working in an area with low ceilings, this feature allows higher positioning of the light without damaging the umbrella. Also, in certain situations, a square catch-light in a reflective surface may be preferred over a round catch-light.

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.

Photoflex UM-ADW30 Reviews

A must-have in any travel light kit.

This has become one of my go-to small umbrellas for portraits. I love the ability to collapse one rib to snug it closer to a wall or ceiling in tight spaces, or to collapse 4 ribs and get a square catchlight in the subject's eyes. I have used this with speedlights and strobes, with equally good results. Quality construction is always evident in Photoflex products. Well worth having in you light kit.

fiberglass ribs don't bend

This is the only umbrella to buy if you take it outdoors. The fiberglass or nylon ribs do not bend if blown over. It also has a velcro strip to hold it together after you roll it up. I won't buy any other brand of umbrella for my outside work.
