Lastolite Collapsible Reflector 75cm Silver/Gold

Lastolite Collapsible Reflector 75cm Silver/Gold | Choose the light’s tone

When a portrait feels a little flat, a reflector can help you bring light back onto the subject without changing the scene. The Lastolite Collapsible Reflector is a 75cm reflector screen with silver and gold options, for photographers who want a simple way to adjust the feel of the light they’re working with. Silver gives a cooler, more neutral-looking reflection; gold adds warmth. That difference is the main reason to choose between the two colours, rather than treating them as interchangeable. At 75cm, it’s a defined-size screen to position near your subject, so it suits portraits and other small setups where you can work close to the light. It’s collapsible, too, which makes it easier to handle between setups than a rigid screen. The honest trade-off is that a reflector needs positioning: you’ll get the result you want by moving it and checking the light, not by expecting it to work from across the room.

Choosing a colour

Start with the look you want on your subject. Choose the silver option when you want to keep the reflected light looking more neutral; reach for gold when a warmer look suits the scene. A small change in the reflector’s position can also change where the light lands, so take a moment to look at the result before settling on an angle. That’s especially helpful when you’re working with a face: the difference between a little added light and too much is easy to see. The 75cm size gives you a clear point of reference as you plan where to hold or place the screen. If you’re deciding between silver and gold for a particular portrait, think about the colour of light you want in the final image, then adjust the reflector to suit.
