The sunlite/white LiteDisc 52” Reflector from Photoflex is designed to be durable and dependable. The SunLite surface will bounce direct sunlight or harsh studio light onto your subject without the blinding effect of the highly reflective mylar surfaces. It is the perfect counterpart to the SoftGold surface, as the SunLite surface is suitable for direct sun, where the more reflective SoftGold surface is suitable for open shade. It uses a silver/gold cross hatch design for just the right amount of warmth in harsh lighting conditions.

The matte warm white surface on the opposite side reflects direct sun where a less reflective surface is desired. It can be used in the studio to reflect soft light into the shadows.

The Reflector folds to almost 1/3 its open size for easy storage and transportability. It stays flat to ensure a smooth, even reflection. Its metallic foil surface is double-laminated for longevity and maximum reflection. The double-riveted frame lets the LiteDisc stand up to tough abuse while maintaining its shape and flexibility

Stays Flat: To create smooth, even reflections and give you control over your light source

Double-Laminated: Prevents light from going through the surface, giving you more reflection on your subject

Double-Riveted: For added strength to prevent breaking and maintain the firm shape of the Disc

Carry Bag: Folds down to 1/3 of its actual size and stores easily in its own bag

White Rim: Prevents unwanted black lines in reflective objects

Q: 2. Why is the inner surface not smooth? What benefit does this have?

A: If it were shiny and smooth then the light it casts would be somewhat similar to that of a parabolic reflector such as the ones found in many flashlights or automobile headlights. As such, it would be much brighter in the center than around the edges. The textured surface reflects the light in many directions and thus provides for a more even beam.
