Review on 📸 Neewer Detachable Photography Lighting Umbrella - White Convertible Umbrella with Reflective Silver Backing and Removable Black Cover - 59 inches/150 Centimeters by Brian Zhao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great value for money, good light but fragile

I've had this umbrella for about a year and have used it on a lot of shoots. Today, in preparation for the shooting, there was an unpleasant surprise: when opening the umbrella, the ring, which you push up on the support rod up to the latch, simply "self-propelled” up the support rod so that it touches the fabric of the umbrella , where it meets the top of the pole. I used the umbrella in this position, although it looked pretty sad it was still mostly open and worked well as a fill light. After that it was very difficult to close. It looks like the part that kept the ring from sliding too far has fallen off.

Pros
  • Industry standard, suitable for studio flashes and umbrella holders
Cons
  • Sad gear
