A 10% damage waiver fee will be applied to your order in the rental basket unless proof of own insurance can be supplied.
The Broncolor Softlight Reflector P, universally known in the industry as the “Silver Beauty Dish,” is a high-performance light shaper designed for photographers who want more “bite” and drama than a standard white dish can provide. While the white version emphasizes a creamy, gentle transition, the silver interior of the Reflector P maximizes light efficiency and contrast. It produces punchy, crisp highlights and deep, sculpted shadows, making it the definitive choice for high-fashion editorial work and athletic portraiture where muscle definition and skin texture are paramount. The center-mounted counter-reflector ensures that no direct light hits the subject, instead forcing the output to reflect off the silver parabolic surface for a punchy yet homogenous spread. This aluminum modifier is a staple for professional studios operating in Hong Kong.

Q: What is the difference between this and the (White) beauty dish?

A: Yes. Adding a diffusion sock will soften the specular highlights while retaining the punchy, center-weighted character of the silver dish.
