Profoto Softlight Kit

The Softlight Kit from Profoto is a softlight reflector kit with four items: the softlight reflector, a honeycomb grid, bag, and a diffuser. The softlight reflector provides soft but directional light suitable for fashion and portrait photography. Of course, it can also be used for numerous lighting applications in architectural, interior design and product photography. The kit includes a honeycomb grid with a 25º beam spread to narrow the light for more precise illumination and a diffuser of 1/3 stop reduction to produce even softer light. The grid clips onto the reflector while the diffuser wraps around and secures itself with a strong elastic band. This reflector is compatible with all Profoto heads, including ProTungsten Air and ProDaylight Air. Use it as an alternative to a softbox.

Reflector

Known as the "beauty dish" because it throws directed but soft light, perfect for fashion and soft portrait photography. It offers a 65º light spread and is meant to be placed close to the subject in order to produce "character" lighting.

Grid

25º honeycomb grid controls the light to a more precise location. Not as tight as a spot light but good for producing highlights.

Diffuser

The diffuser wraps around the reflector to further soften the light, reducing it by 1/3 stop.
