Thanks to the new parabolic umbrellas, we make a big step forward towards the ultimate goal of light shaping: absolutely free to create. Highly versatile and extremely portable, parabolic umbrellas generate an endless source of artistic expression.
Different from regular umbrellas, parabolic umbrellas enable better direct control over contrast, saturation, and shadow-edge gradation of the subjects. Ideal for glamor, portraits, or fashion photography, parabolic umbrellas can easily change the character of light by repositioning the light on the rod; choosing between different linings and sizes; attaching diffusers.
White for Easy Control
White lining umbrellas still offer relatively good control over the light. However, the light is softer than the silver coating and a bit less demanding to work with. Putting the diffuser on it, you get a fascinating window light.
