"This is a good portable umbrella to take on location photography. If you are a Strobist, then this is a good item to have in your arsenal. The light output has more contrast than a white diffused umbrella or softbox. Personally, I like the harsher look than a diffused soft light. It is also more efficient than a white umbrella (which loses a few stops) so you don't lose too much light when you use your hot-s..." Read Full Review »

"The light that these guys put out is really impressive...the soft silver finish ends up producing a look closer to a traditional white umbrella with just a touch more pop, really flattering and versatile. However the design means the support ribs are slimmer than many and bear more tension, making these very, very fragile.

Pros

Best Uses
"I bought this because it's short when collapsed, but it's held open by a cheap plastic spring loaded clip that was broken when I received it.
