Elinchrom RQ Grid Reflector 18cm 56?

Elinchrom RQ Grid Reflector 18cm 56°: Shape light with grids

Elinchrom’s 18 cm reflector uses a 56° beam angle to balance high light output with broad light spread. The Elinchrom RQ Grid Reflector 18cm 56° is a light-shaping attachment for Elinchrom RQ flash heads, with a recessed opening for insert grids. Use it as a broad reflector when you need to light a wider area, add a grid when a setup calls for a tighter beam, or pair it with an EL umbrella or deflector set to change the light’s character. The 56° coverage keeps the beam relatively open, while the optional grids offer narrower angles for more contained lighting. That range is useful in portrait and product setups, where the same flash head may need to cover a larger area or keep light off nearby parts of the scene. It’s a reflector first, with compatible accessories for changing how the light falls.

What it does

• Recess for insert grids: The reflector has an internal opening for Elinchrom grids, so you can add a grid when you want a narrower spread than the reflector’s standard output. The optional 18 cm grids are available in 12°, 20° and 30° angles.
• Elinchrom RQ bayonet: It connects to flash heads with the Elinchrom RQ mount. That specific connection is important when selecting a reflector for an existing RQ lighting setup.
• Works with EL umbrellas: Use it with EL umbrellas up to 105 cm. This gives you an umbrella-compatible option for broadening or softening the light from the flash head.
• Compatible with the EL deflector set: The reflector can be used with the EL deflector set, which includes gold, silver, translucent and matt deflectors. These finishes give you different ways to alter the light at the front of the reflector.
• Dark grey finish: The reflector is finished in dark grey. It’s a simple detail, but it makes the product easy to identify among studio lighting accessories.
