Perfect for Portraits
The purpose of the concave reflector is to brighten portraits from below. It is placed with the opening upwards (or slightly inclined) in front of the model and illuminated from above with soft light (reflector sail, softbox, diffuser) so that the light is reflected from below into the subject's face. This reduces or completely prevents the often disturbing shadows under the nose, mouth, chin, cheeks and eye sockets. On top of that, you create a bright mirror image of the wide reflector surface in the eyes of your subject, which looks a bit like a smile.
The reflector is supplied in a handy bag. It is easy to assemble without tools. A clear operating manual helps you to assemble the reflector quickly and safely. The Walimex pro 3in1 Reflector Halfpipe is concave arched, hence the name. For a perfect illumination of the portraits it has a size of 150 x 60 cm. Of course, nothing stands in the way of other creative applications of the concave reflector!

3 Functions in One
First of all, the frame of the halfpipe is strung with the silver reflector fabric. With the additional reversible cover - white on one side and wavy gold on the other - you can change the silver reflector to a different colour in seconds using the Velcro fastener:

• wavy gold: This special coating consists of a zigzag pattern with alternating gold and silver stripes. Together they reflect the incoming light and create a warm soft but bright illumination for the motif. This colour is particularly suitable for skin tones, as sunlight also receives a warmer tone. The silver content maximizes brightness due to its strong reflectivity.
• white: The classic reflector colour for brightening with soft light. The light is not reflected as precisely as with silver, but loses intensity because it bounces off the reflector in a spherical shape. On the other hand, the light effect is similar to that of a diffuser.
• silver: Guarantees maximum light output, which can work wonders in bad weather conditions. However, silver is not recommended in full sun or direct lightning.

Tips for the Use of the Reflector Halfpipe
The reflector can be held by an assistant. This allows a quick setup and quick adjustment of the angle. However, it can also be used mounted on a stable lamp stand. This is a better solution, especially in a quiet studio atmosphere. The concave Walimex pro 3in1 reflector halfpipe is equipped with a high-quality centre beam and a stable locking mechanism. The inclination of the reflector can be adjusted over 180 degrees from -90° to +90°. This gives you maximum flexibility for your work. Due to the size of the reflector, an appropriately stable lamp tripod is necessary, such as the Walimex pro Classic WT-806 lamp stand 256 cm (Art. No. 12138, which is included in this set).

Set Consisting of Reflector Halfpipe and Matching Lamp Tripod
For immediate use, this set includes not only the concave reflector halfpipe but also the lamp tripod WT-806. So you have a complete product and can start right away - even without an assistant who holds the reflector.

Lamp tripod Walimex pro WT-806: Proven classic with first-class price-performance ratio
The Walimex pro WT-806 lamp tripod is our absolute number 1 due to its unbeatable price-performance ratio. The high quality manufactured tripod can be extended to max. 256cm and is at the same time extremely transportable with only 98cm pack size and therefore suitable for studio as well as mobile use. Despite the high-quality equipment, the lamp stand weighs only 1620 grams. The tripod convinces by its extremely stable stand, even when fully extended. A further advantage is the high continuous load capacity due to a very high-quality and well thought-out construction. All components are very solidly constructed and designed for long use. Through the use of metal fasteners and adjustable screws, this tripod still gives much pleasure even after years of use.

Comfortable spring damping
The tripod is equipped with spring damping, which ensures a gentle lowering of the individual tripod elements. Your equipment is therefore always in safe hands. The tripod connection has a 16mm spigot connection with an additional 1/4 inch thread. Lamps, reflectors or studio flashes up to 6kg can be attached. A transport and storage bag is included as standard.
