Reflector Walimex 17690 redondo oro plata 107 cm

The Walimex 17690 Round Gold Silver 107 cm is a foldable, round reflector designed for studio and location photography. With both gold and silver surfaces and a 107 cm diameter, it helps shape and modify light for portraits and product shots. The reflector folds down to a compact transport size and comes with a fabric carrying bag for protection and mobility.

Advantages

Two interchangeable covers provide flexibility for different lighting situations: the gold surface produces a warm, soft tone while the silver surface yields a harder, cooler reflection. The round shape is suitable for creating natural catchlights and directional highlights. A canvassed, extra-strong spring ring ensures a smooth, wrinkle-free reflective surface and robust construction. The reflector is foldable for easy storage and transport.

Suitable for

• Portrait photography (catchlights, fill light, warm or cool tones)
• Product photography (highlighting contours and details)
• On-location shoots where portable lighting control is needed
• Creating effect or accent lighting in studio setups

How to use

Unfold the reflector and select the desired cover (gold for warm light, silver for cool/harder light). Hold or mount the reflector to direct the reflected light onto the subject to provide fill, create highlights, or modify the ambient light. For portrait work, position the reflector to produce natural catchlights in the eyes; for product shots, angle it to emphasize shape and texture. When finished, fold the reflector along the spring ring into its compact transport size and store it in the fabric carrying bag.

Recommendations

Use the gold surface to add warmth for skin tones or romantic effects; use the silver surface for stronger contrast and brighter highlights. Keep the reflective surfaces clean and avoid sharp creases to maintain even reflection. For extended outdoor shoots, secure the reflector to a stand or assistant to prevent movement from wind.
