Profoto White Softlight Beauty Dish Reflector (20.5")

The beauty dish is a must-have if love that middle point between hard light and soft light. It's ideal for fashion portraits and beauty photography. Quality is great, just a little prone to scratch in the back. I use it all the time with my D1's.

Great light modifier as expected. Well built, but too expensive - the standard Profoto formula. If you can part with the cash, you won't be sorry. Two things of interest are (1) As between the silver dish or white dish, the silver produces harder / edgier light BUT with the addition of a diffusion sock, it calms that light into a much softer look. So, with the silver dish, one can bring out both hard and soft light. The white dish produces lovely soft light....but can't produce the harder, edgier look of the silver. Silver dish = better value. (2) I wasn't sure if I needed to purchase an extra Profoto speed ring in order to be able to affix the dish on to the B1 strobe. Turns out, you do not as the dish has the rubber mount on the back as part of the dish itself. Nice! Saves an additional expense. Gave four stars only because of the price. This dish is super nice, but for almost 400, I think Profoto takes advantage of those (me) who tolerate such expense because of our view that the B1 and/or B2 strobes are superior to other choices.
