The Westcott 40.5" 5-in-1 Collapsible Reflector is versatile in the field and in the studio, providing shadow-lightening detail in your subject, using available, or studio lighting. It starts out as a translucent white disc -- perfect for softening direct sun, or lights without diffusion. Use the removable, reversible zippered slipcover to reflect light into shadow areas of your subject. Your choice of color -- silver, gold, white, black mix -- will be determined by the lighting conditions, and your personal preference.

• Silver increases the specular highlights and yields a high-contrast image. It's perfect for video, product shots and B&W photography.

• Gold produces a natural, golden fill that is great for sunsets, jewelry, and indoor portraits.

• White produces an even, neutral-colored bounce light that works beautifully as a fill light source for both product shots and indoor/outdoor portraits.

• The black side diminishes unwanted reflections or color casts.

• Translucent fabric is used to diffuse light, producing a broad light source and a soft, wrap around effect that's perfect for outdoor portraits or whenever a softer light is needed.
