Photogenic Quality Not What It Used To Be

We've been using these for years and the quality control has gone down over the years. The umbrella came with multiple tips not connected to the rods. The last one I ordered they would never stay on, luckily these did stay on once I put them on.

I use these in different sizes. From the 27 (I think, somewhere around there) to the 45 and up to 60. Shoot through, or reflective, they are awesome. Very consistent lighting, and durable. My smaller ones are 5 years old and work like new. As a school photographer, you need something like this you can rely on. You won't be disappointed.

Solid umbrella, excellent color great for schools!

Solid, light and perfect for school photography. Just photographed over 550 High School Kids with these umbrellas on my Main and Fill lights, love them!

I like them :-)

...several weeks ago I picked up two of these umbrellas to use for portraits and have been using them almost every day since. Great clean color and not too soft. I'm running with the black covers on. As advertised the catchlights are nicer than with a normal umbrella too. As they're essentially new I can't comment on the ultimate durability, thats why the 4 rating. These seem to be an excellent value.

The convenience of opening and dismantling .

question

Does anyone know if Photogenic umbrellas fit into Elinchrom Light heads? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Asked by: Desiree S.
Photogenic were my favorite umbrellas and I used them for years with a variety of lighting equipment so yes they will work with Elinchrom heads.
