Godox AD-S85S Silver 85cm Folding Softbox Beauty Dish with Grid (Godox Native Mount)

This unique light modifier is a hybrid between a softbox and a beauty dish and thus can be used to craft soft light in a variety of different ways. It makes use of the Godox native mount; making it directly compatible with the Godox AD300, AD400, ML30, and ML60. This light modifier is, therefore, not compatible with Bowens-mount lighting and accessories. 

 

Please note that a light and light stand are not included. Pictures are used for illustrative purposes only.

A softbox is a versatile light modifier used in photography to create a soft, even, and flattering quality of light. It is designed to reduce hard and edgy shadows, and to create a directional quality of light. Softboxes come in various shapes and sizes, and they can be used with a variety of light sources such as speedlights, monolights, or some LEDs. Using a softbox in photography provides the following advantages:

• Emulates window light: Softboxes can emulate window light, providing a natural-looking light source for portraits, fashion photography, and other genres.
• Flattering light: The soft, even light created by a softbox is ideal for beauty and portrait photography, as it minimizes harsh shadows and provides a more flattering look.
• Better control of light: Softboxes offer greater control of light direction and intensity, making it easier to achieve the desired effect.
• Minimal light spillage: Softboxes are designed to minimize light spillage, ensuring that light only falls where it is intended.
• Versatility: Softboxes can be used for a wide range of photography applications, from product photography to fashion, portrait, and more.
• Silver textured interior for maintaining light intensity and ensuring even light distribution
• Includes both inner and outer diffusers for additional light control and softness
