Product Description
The Photo Basics 5-in-1 Collapsible Reflector Kit is versatile in the field and in the studio, providing shadow-lightening detail in your subject, using available, or studio lighting. It contains a translucent white disc, which is perfect for softening direct sunlight, or lights without diffusion. Use the removable, reversible zippered slipcover to reflect light into shadow areas of your subject. The cover consists of the following colors: silver, gold, white and black. This 42" reflector is perfect for 3/4 length portraits, and medium still-life setups. It folds down to 1/3 its open size, and comes with a carry case. We suggest the purchase of a pivoting arm and stand, to hold the disc where needed -- especially if you are working without an assistant.

 Westcott 40-inch 5-in-1 Reflector March 14, 2010
Carolyn E. Blakeney (Annapolis, MD United States)
As others have mentioned, the zipper can be a little tricky sticky, but if handled carefully, this reflector set is a great addition to the budget conscious photographer's tool box. I liked it so much I bought the 20-inch version also (from somewhere else I believe) as yes, the 40-inch is rather large for some applications. (That's why God made measuring tapes...) Very useful for indoor food photography, with or without flash.

This reflector is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to fold, easy to change surfaces. Nothing to complain about here.
Provides nice lighting options in a convenient case January 27, 2010
Rob (Sherman Oaks, CA)
This works great when you want to control light on the go. Very portable. You can use as a reflector with black and gold or as a diffuser.
My favorite "Go-To" reflector January 10, 2010

I was in the wholesale professional photo equipment business for over 20 years and know Westcott products well. They have that unique combination of quality and value. With this reflector you can add "innovation" to the list.
I use it to:
* Subtract or block light (black)
* Add some warmth (gold)
* Refect as much light as possible to fill in shadows, espcially when shoting with available light (silver)
* Difuse direct light or to shoot through (translucent white)
I did have a problem with the zipper on the cover. The pull came off pretty early in my using it but it was an easy fix. Highly recommended!
