Manfrotto has introduced the silver/white 32" Halo Compact Reflector for image makers who want to travel light while taking full advantage of ambient light or minimal lighting gear to produce polished work. Able to set up in seconds, the Halo is built around a rigid metal frame to which the reversible reflective material is attached. The silver side gives you punchy light with a kick of contrast, while the white side yields soft, neutral, bounced illumination. The supporting ring has a large, ergonomic handle that makes for a secure, comfortable grip when angling the Halo or holding it overhead. The frame also has 1/4" female threads and a 1/4" to 1/4" adapter for mounting options. The Halo folds down to a fraction of its open size to fit in the included bag for storage and transport.
