Review on Neewer Beehive Umbrella Speedlite Panasonic by Eric Carr

WOW! I am an avid user of Westcott light modifiers and treasure my 45 inch Master's Brush Umbrella. Well known brand that has essentially the same performance. If you use a box of this size you will see the value. Great for couples or 3/4 portraits. You have enough space and power. I use a 300ws studio flash and it works great, although a 640 flash like the Einstein would be good for large group shots at a distance. Also, the octagonal shape creates a nice round catchlight in the eyes, compared to for child/toddler portraits or adult face, head and shoulders only portraits , this works well with a decent sized portable flash (I also use it with a 180ws Quantum T5dr for occasional field work. Time will tell but I intend to assemble it at my workshop and leave it there. Thinking about it after time reassembly/disassembly will show wear but for on location shooting I prefer bros.One word pr Warning this is a BIG modifier and we When it is hung on the front of my studio flash, it has easy leverage. . Invest in a quality lighting stand, such as B. Stand C for this pup. I also have a 20b punching bag on a stand and a stand on wheels to make it easier to move around the "studio".
