Hard reflectors in photography

The name “hard reflectors” reveals two important characteristics of these light shaping tools. As the name suggests – the reflectors themselves are hard, which makes them extremely durable. They are coated in high-quality metal, either with a silver or a white finish. Secondly, they tend to create a harder light with a more distinct fall-off than, for instance, a softbox or an umbrella.

Creatively they help you alter the contrast and the mood of your images by creating a number of lighting effects from direct, focused light with a distinct fall-off to a wider, more even light spread across the image area. Their versatility makes them an essential light modifier.
