We now have in stock a black and white 100% cotton muslin popup background 150 x 200cm, they are black one side and white the other. This is ideal for use around the studio as a background but actually is great if you are on the move as it packs down into its own 70cm diameter bag.
Its at home for use with studio flash or video lighting, it is also useful as a large white reflector. The black side can be used to kill light in fact acts as the reverse of a reflector.

Gavin Hoey explores with the use of our 3 head super softbox continuous lighting kit to take portraits and shows different effects that can be achieved. This is an alternative to studio flash for taking portraits, the main advantage is that you see what you get which is good for beginners.
It uses energy saving compact fluorescent balanced daylight bulbs which means that they produce great light and not much heat compared with redhead type tungsten lighting. Suitable for not only portrait photography but it can be used as video lighting and for product photography.
Photography reflectors are used to add or subtract light from your subject, they can be used for all types of photography, and it is the most versatile piece of photography lighting equipment you can have. For still photography or video, and could be used indoors or outdoors. Using the reflector outdoors will help you reduce contrast in very bright sunny conditions that tend to cast harsh shadows, reflecting light back into the shadows.
Many photographers use photographic reflectors to add the light to their subject in order to get rid of unwanted shadows and also to add some warm tones using the gold reflectors. There are many different kinds and sizes of reflectors, but here are the basic types to keep in mind.
Silver reflectors really help to increase the specular highlights of your subject, giving an image a higher contrast a gold reflector used to introduce warm tones most used in portrait pictures.
The most versatile are the 5 in 1 reflectors which have a zip off cover giving you different reflective surfaces gold, silver, white black and diffuser. Black is not really a reflector but actually does the opposite by stop unwanted reflections in your subject. Our range go from 80cm circular reflectors up to 200 x 150 cm gold/silver reflector something for everyone.
