The 43" FotodioX Pro Studio Umbrella is a white translucent, shoot-through umbrella constructed for in-studio and on-location work. This umbrella features a diffusive 1-stop white nylon that exhibits wide coverage, low contrast, and a substantial boost in the ambient light level when aiming the convex side of the umbrella toward the subject. The 43" diameter is suitable for a 1-or-2 person headshot, a head-to-waist shot, or a 4 x 6' product setup. The umbrella can be used with strobes and is heat resistant to use with low-wattage continuous lights.

Q: 5. Hello. I need a couple of shoot thru umbrella arround 80cm in diameter but is a must to have a solid center rod and fiber for radial rods. Can u recomand something on a budget that dont cist much but have that caracteristics? Thank you in advance

A: I own quite a few umbrellas, most of which are translucent, all of which were included with the lighting system I purchased from B&H photo. Each one is constructed as you have specified as a must to meet your needs. They each have a solid center rod that feels and appears to be made of stainless steel. I cannot comment on the radial rods being fiber or not, since they are all covered by the translucent material/fabric. My best advice here would be to contact B&H Photo and speak to one of their very knowledgeable staff members. They have helped me many times in finding just what I needed, even if they are not the ones who sell it.David C
