K&F CONCEPT 5-in-1, 80 cm, two handles, folds to 27 cm
Twenty-nine euros for an 80 cm disc with two handles sewn on, 90 per cent reflectivity published and a 27 cm folded size — and a page that explains its surfaces by what each does to colour temperature.
- Diameter
- 80 cm, in the title. The fourth bullet calls it 32 inches in its heading and then 80 cm or 35 inches in its text — two different conversions of the same disc in one bullet, and 80 cm is 31.5 inches. The intro above ties diameter to how the light wraps, and 80 cm covers a head and shoulders generously or one half of a standing figure
- Shape
- Round, named in the last bullet. The intro above matches round to a face; the 33 € Selens on this shelf is the oval, for a whole standing figure
- Surfaces supplied
- Five, and this page is the only one on the shelf to explain them in colour temperature: gold reflects light of low colour temperature to restore a skin tone, silver light of high colour temperature to correct one, white does not affect colour temperature at all, black blocks and absorbs surplus light, and the translucent centre works as a diffuser. The covers turn over or come off
- Frame construction
- Not named. The third bullet describes a multi-layer textile of polyester fibre with a highly reflective coating — that is the fabric, not the hoop. Only the 33 € Selens on this shelf says what its frame is made of
- Folded size
- 27 cm, in the second bullet, which also says it fits into a small storage bag. From 80 cm that is a third, the same ratio as the 8 € Retoo folding 60 cm into 20
- Fabric described
- Multi-layer polyester fibre with a high-reflectivity coating, and 90 per cent reflectivity claimed in the third bullet — a figure two of the four discs here publish. No weight and no denier
- Holder or bracket compatibility
- Both a holder and a hand: the second bullet gives two handles sewn to the side and says it works without a helper, and the last bullet says the disc suits standard sizes and a variety of reflector holders. That bullet also argues that a hanging reflector holds up better outdoors than a standing one, because the wind does not take it
- Amazon reference
- B0CMWLSVK8 (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
- EAN
- 6942052556644
- Two handles sewn to the edge, so one person can hold and aim it
- Ninety per cent reflectivity published, and 27 cm folded from 80
- The fourth bullet calls the same disc 32 inches and 35 inches in consecutive sentences
Best for: Working alone outdoors, where the disc has to be held and aimed by the same hand that is not holding the camera.
