The purpose of the concave reflector is to brighten up portraits from below. It is placed in front of the model with the opening facing upwards (or slightly inclined) and illuminated from the front with soft light (reflector sail, softbox, diffuser) in such a way that the light is reflected from below into the subject's face. This reduces or completely eliminates the often disturbing shadows under the nose, mouth, chin, cheeks and eye sockets. On top of this, you conjure up a bright reflection of the wide reflector surface in the eyes of your subject, which looks a little like a smile. The reflector is supplied in a handy bag. It is easy to assemble without any tools. A clearly laid out instruction manual helps to set it up quickly and safely. The Walimex pro 3in1 Reflector Halfpipe is concave curved, hence the name. For a perfect illumination of the portraits it has a size of 150 x 60 cm. Of course, nothing stands in the way of other creative applications of the concave reflector. First the frame of the halfpipe is covered with the silver reflector fabric.
