The 42″ 5-In-1 Reflector from Film Crew Studio Essentials offers convenient options for photographers and videographers to affect the color and quality of the light. A reversible sleeve has gold, silver, black, and white surfaces that zip around a translucent white disc.
The gold side provides a late afternoon sun look while the silver bounces a cooler, more contrasty look with an emphasis on highlights and specularity. The white side provides a soft, neutral reflectance that’s great for filling in shadows and raising the tonal value of the shot. The black side provides negative reflectance or absorption of light. Use it to block light or subtract reflected light and create shadows or a lighting ratio. Used on its own, the translucent disc will quickly diffuse a harsh light source or reduce shadows and contrast in midday sunlight. The 5-in-1 sets up immediately and folds down quickly to one third its open size for storage and transport.
