32 Inch/80 Centimeter Light Reflector Light Diffuser

I have been wanting to get a reflector and have debated to go cheap or go expensive but in the end, I decided that as my money goes to lenses, flashes, strobe studio lights, there are priority purchases and purchases that I have to keep under budget.The reflector was under $15 and looking for similar sizes online, some charge quite a bit for it. So, the big question that you may be wondering...do you actually get what you're paying for?My answer is that for $15, this is an excellent, sturdy and also portable reflector. It comes with its own bag and there are no instructions. And if you accidentally thrash one, no problem...easier to replace because of its cheaper price than thrashing a more expensive one.But if you have put away a windshield reflector and know how to bend/fold one, then you know how to put this one away. If anything, just make sure that you get it inside without it being caught on a zipper (this doesn't just apply to this product, this can apply to jackets with zippers, CD/DVD binders, etc.).So, you get a translucent reflector, silver, gold, white and black and each reflector is its own bag. And once again, these are sturdy. I don't know about the others who gave it a negative but I haven't had any problems with them and let's say, even if I do, down the line....years later, it is less than $15.I know how some of you may be thinking...well, I love the price and it has received considerable good reviews but maybe I should buy one with a stand and reflector holder.If you have the $70 to blow on one, go for it! But I needed to keep things under budget and with the reflector going in my budget list, I will tell you that in my studio, it's being held by one of my expensive mic stands with a clamp (there are many examples on line of DYI reflector holders). Because this certain reflector is huge and a little heavy for the boom arm, I have three sandbags holding the boom arm on the other end to balance the weight, so it works perfectly.JUDGMENT CALL:For the price of this 43" reflector and the fact that it has 5-in-1, you can't really go wrong with it unless you start tearing into it. Once again, personally for me, there are other items in my studio that are priority when it comes to money...glass, multiple flashes,lights, softboxes, more stands or a full-frame camera, etc. And I needed one that doesn't break the bank and fit my budget, as well as something I can make it easy enough for DYI setup and for less than $15 and the fact that it is 43" and well-constructed and most of all...it works.Overall, Neewer's 43" 110 cm multi-disc reflector for me... it's perfect. For others, if you are on a budget...this is the one to get!

I wish I saw these sooner because it really has made a difference in the quality of my photos. I am a local photographer and will sometimes get folks who want family photos of them and sometimes they want it at specific locations. Most of the time my soft boxes do not make the photo look better, so I needed some reflectors to fill in those shadows. I have always trusted NEEWER to provide the best quality photography products for the best prices. This is the best bundle of reflectors as they came in 5 different options. I personally love the golden one because it brings some warm light into the scene. The discs are collapsible and can be easily portable with the provided bag. I always will recommend NEEWER!

Super high quality, about as good as you can ask for. Very large and sturdy. I didn’t see how large these were before I ordered and just assumed they’d be smaller so I had to order another smaller set but I still love these!the reversible exterior makes these a breeze to swap in and out depending on what you need. The black is my favorite look to use, it makes such a great dark fill.

I have edited this review to keep up with my new review format, but the sentiments haven't changed!CONSTRUCTIONLet's start with this: Is this of the same quality as a pro reflector? No. I am already feeling the rim starting to bend in places and ways it shouldn't, but I do not anticipate it breaking any time soon. The panels themselves are made of good quality material, and so far the case has withstood many travels! As one commenter helpfully pointed out, "the reflector folds up into a 16" diameter carrying case that is roughly 3.5" (but can be compressed to about one half that)".FUNCTIONDoes this thing work like it should? Absolutely. As I mentioned it is made of good materials and has held up very well so far. I am a pro photographer, but never above a good deal - I am a big supporter of "the little guy". The versatility of this little reflector is excellent - you can use it for almost any situation, and I find myself switching from silver to gold to translucent within the same shoot, because we all know that changing an angle outdoors can completely change your lighting! Works quite nicely as a shoot-through if you have an assistant to hold it!OVERALLWould I buy this again? Absolutely. The sheer quality of this reflector at the price paid, makes the "best bang for your buck" cliché almost bearable! Out of all of my photog friends, not one can pick this out as a budget reflector, and several have been converted. It has stood up to the test of time (see updates below), and that is all I can ask or expect.Cheap.Works.Recommended.**EDIT**Almost a year, and PLENTY of shoots later, and this great piece of equipment is still going strong!!! I use this thing on most out door shoots which don't require off camera flash, and for portraits you can't go wrong! Highly recommended still! You can either order from Papa John's this week or get an excellent Reflector...your choice.**EDIT 2**It has now been 23 months, and the only issue I have had is some loose threads from the hanging loop. I cut them off, burned them with a lighter to stop any future deterioration and so far I have had no issues. My initial worries about it bending in the wrong places have been totally wiped out - this thing is still going strong. Highly recommended!
