Beauty dish arrived not so beautiful

I haven't used it so this is about quality. It arrived today. Flimsy large 3rd grade carton. Hardly taped. Ups left it on my door step. The dish was surprisingly not bent out of shape. The fittings on the strobe cover and the speed ring screws, as is the adapter, made from that somewhat cheap metal that will probably rust. But I put it together hooked up to an AB and it's there. Not heavy for the Bee. The diffuser I got was somewhat dingy. Had a few scuff marks on it. Finally, the white paint…

Pros
  • 80° reflector dish in heavy duty aluminum construction
Cons
  • Price point may be too high for some photographers

Ding ding on the rim

Came in the mail double boxed and fast on shipment one star for that. LittleDent about 1".5" to 2".5" around the edge don't know why didn't drop it cause I open the box in front of the mail man to check it out and he notice it dayummmmmmm. Product still work fine like how it suppose to and would recommend this product to all flash users.

Pros
  • Lighting Controls & Modifiers
Cons
  • May require an additional grid or diffuser to achieve desired results

Works like a charm: my feedback

It really works great. It fits my B800 like it was made for it. It's large, it can fill a decent sized area with beautifully diffused light. A plus is that it's pretty sturdy. I've taken it on many shoots and a few times, and in cramped situations I thought sure it was going to get dinged up, it always comes through without a scratch. It's well worth the small investment.One thing to keep in mind: The 28" dish is large and puts a bit of weight on one side of your light stand. If you don't…

Pros
  • The 28-inch size is perfect for creating a more dynamic range of lighting options, which allows you to experiment and get creative with your shots
Cons
  • May produce glare or lens flares in certain lighting situations

Fotodiox Pro Beauty dish

This beauty dish is high quality, works well and has a white lining which I was told is better than silver (for faces). I installed a Alienbees B800 in it. Glad I bought it. Worth the price.

Pros
  • 1 x 1 x 1 inches
Cons
  • Difficult to adjust once mounted

Great modifier! best in my review

Indeed, beautiful results are achieved using this beauty dish. Just the right size to cover most portraits and yet light enough to be used with most strobes.It is a reasonable investment that will greatly improve your portraits. On the other side, it will not help you with anything else. It is not intended to tricky light set-ups.Overall, great price/value rate !

Pros
  • The Fotodiox Pro Beauty Dish 28" provides first-class light control for exceptional portrait photography, ensuring that every image captured has a flawless look and feel
Cons
  • May require additional lighting or reflectors to achieve desired results
