Medium Beauty Dish - Silver 40cm

40cm (15.7") Silvered Beauty Dish with free Diffuser

Beauty Dishes are the favourite light shaping tool of fashion, glamour and portrait photographers who have moved beyond soft lighting and who want to emphasise high cheekbones and good complexions.

Unlike the light from softboxes, the light is very controlled and directional and so is also ideal for backlighting and rimlighting, and for when vignettes are wanted. A free diffuser is included, this softens the light when needed and creates a light similar to that of a softbox.

A honeycomb grid is also available. This allows even greater control of both light spread and flare and can produce stunning, dramatic lighting with very hard shadow transfer edges.

A larger, 70cm (27.5") model is also available.


Technical Specifications:

• Quality of light: Soft but directional light


• Light output (compared to standard reflector) -2 stops


• Modelling lamp: Yes, uses lamp fitted to flash head. Modelling lamps must not be left switched on when the Beauty Dish is fitted with a honeycomb grid, to avoid overheating

Compatible with:
All Lencarta, Bowens and other flash heads with standard Bowens S-fitting

Please take a look at the video below. It features the larger, 70cm version of our Beauty Dish but the principle is the same.
