Riflettore per studio fotografico Walimex 17681 rotondo nero oro argento trasparente bianco diametro 56 cm

The Walimex 17681 round photo reflector (diameter 56 cm) includes five interchangeable covers — black, gold, silver, transparent and white — plus a diffuser. It is a collapsible, portable reflector intended to shape and modify incident light for portrait and product photography. The reflector’s round form and durable spring ring construction provide smooth, even surfaces and reduce post-production work when used as a background. A fabric carrying bag is included for transport and storage.

Advantages

The set offers several covers for flexible control of light quality and color. The gold cover produces a warm, slightly sun-like tone; the silver surface gives a hard, cool reflection suitable for crisp highlights; the white cover provides soft, color-neutral fill; the black cover is used to block or selectively reduce light; the transparent (diffuser) cover softens and disperses light for gentle, indirect illumination. The reflector folds compactly for easy transport and features an extra-strong canvassed spring ring for taut, wrinkle-free reflective surfaces.

Suitable for

• Portrait photography — main light, fill, softening or selective shading
• Product photography — creating hard highlights or controlled fill
• High-key backgrounds — backlighting the diffuser/white cover for bright backgrounds
• On-location shoots where compact, portable light control is needed

How to use

Select the cover that matches the lighting effect you need and mount it on the reflector frame. Hold or mount the reflector to bounce, diffuse, or block incident light: use the gold cover for warmer highlights, silver for harder cool highlights, white for neutral soft fill, black to flag or reduce light, and the transparent diffuser to soften direct sun or flash. For backgrounds, position the reflector behind the subject and light it from the front or rear to achieve high-key results. Fold the reflector down for transport and store it in the included fabric bag.

Recommendations

For portrait work, combine the diffuser or white cover with a subtle gold or silver accent to balance skin tones and create controlled catchlights; use the black cover to sculpt facial contours or reduce unwanted spill. In product photography, start with the silver cover for crisp specular highlights and switch to white or diffuser when more even illumination is required.
