Review on Fotodiox Pro Beauty Dish 28" For Alien Bees: Professional Light Control For Stunning Portraits by Rob Marsh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

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 have heavy duty stands, you may need to counter weight your light or weigh down your stand.

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
