Review on Large 59 X 78 Inch Selens Oval Reflector With Convenient Handle For Professional Studio And Outdoor Photography Lighting, 5-In-1 Multi-Functional Reflective Surface by Luckie Coonrod

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Strong frame-- take care when opening!

This was showing backordered when I placed my order but it arrived a few days ahead of schedule.This product seems very sturdy right out of the box. The plastic grip handle is solid and large enough to provide a comfortable hold. There was no screw hole to accommodate a stand but regular clamps should work fine if you don't have an extra hand while shooting.Take care when opening! The flexible frame is strong and has a mind of its own. Even though I am familiar with this design and was expecting it to open on its own, I wasn't ready for the force with which it opened. I had left an open knife on the counter after opening the shipping box. When the reflector frame burst open it swept the knife off the counter but fortunately didn't cause any injury or damage. Heads up!I was hoping that the reflective material would smooth out more while opened up overnight. It didn't seem to flatten out at all but I have no doubt it will still function well. It might even be a benefit to scatter and soften the light a bit.I bought this as a stepping stone to flash equipment. I'm very happy with this purchase especially given the $20 price point. I saw similar "pro level" products for 3.5x the price. Can't wait to put it into use.

This reflector works well. It makes pictures look nicer for an affordable price. It’s easy to switch to a different color with it. It’s very easy to fold to transport. Holding the reflectors for pictures is very easy it’s not too big.
