Profoto Collapsible Reflectors probably represent light shaping in its most uncomplicated form. They are easy to use, easy to carry and can be used for bouncing or diffusing sunlight as well as flash. The sturdy yet collapsible metal frame is equipped with two ergonomically shaped handles which make the reflectors easy to fold and hold in various positions.

White fabric reflects the light most naturally making it our most popular reflector and a great tool to start with. It gives you a soft, natural light that is ideal for outdoor portraits when the sun is strong, or in studio shoots when you’re using flash. To get the best effect from the white reflector it should be placed in fairly close proximity to your subject.

The metallic silver fabric increases the light output and creates more contrast and crisp colors. It is ideal for shooting in low light or when you need a stronger light. Be aware that in the strong midday light, the silver can prove to be quite intense, so in that instance you can either move it further away or position indirectly, or use the white side instead.
