Review on πŸ“· Fotodiox Premium 43" Studio Umbrella: Shoot Through Translucent Neutral White & Enhance Your Studio Photography by Ruth Reiners

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Bought two, got two different ones

The downside is I got one high quality and the other one medium quality. Honestly I would give one 5 stars and the other 3 stars. A higher quality shaft has a stronger shaft in the middle so it doesn't get too compressed when tightening in the stand and also has stronger loops on the umbrella part itself. It's perfect for what I want from an umbrella and I can do not complain. Low quality - average. Hollow shaft and flimsy hinges, but honestly it gets the job done. When the wind catches one of them, they both bend a few times before breaking. I could get 2 extra months of better ones but I have to say I'm buying them cheaper and expect them to break in and buy new ones in less than a year. The quality of the fabric is the same which means they will look the same on film when I use them.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Not sure
