Umbrelă reflector translucidă Elinchrom 26355 125 cm

The Elinchrom translucent umbrella reflector with a 125 cm diameter provides soft, even diffusion of light for studio and on-location photography. Designed to scatter and soften the output of flash heads and constant lights, this umbrella produces a broad, flattering illumination that reduces harsh shadows and highlights. Its translucent fabric and frame create a large, wraparound light source suitable for portrait, product, and fashion shoots where controlled soft light is required.

Advantages

This 125 cm translucent umbrella offers a wide coverage area while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. The construction ensures consistent light diffusion across the full surface, producing smooth falloff and natural-looking tones. The design is compatible with common umbrella mounts and most studio lights, and its size makes it a versatile tool for achieving soft key light or fill light without complex modifiers.

Suitable for

• Portrait photography where soft, flattering light is needed
• Product photography for even illumination and reduced specular highlights
• Fashion and editorial shoots requiring broad, wraparound lighting
• Studio setups and location shoots that need portable, quick-to-deploy diffusion

Key specifications

• Type: Translucent umbrella reflector
• Diameter: 125 cm
• Function: Diffusion and softening of light
• Compatibility: Fits standard umbrella mounts for studio flashes and continuous lights
• Weight: Lightweight design for easy transport and setup

How to use

Position the translucent umbrella between the light source and the subject with the light aimed into the umbrella so the diffused light emerges toward the subject. Mount the umbrella onto a compatible umbrella holder or directly to the light head if supported, and secure it on a light stand. Adjust distance and angle between the umbrella and subject to control softness and shadow definition; moving the umbrella closer produces softer light with more wrap, while moving it farther increases contrast. Combine with reflectors, grids, or flags as needed to shape the light further.

Recommendations

For portrait work, place the umbrella slightly above eye level and angled down to create natural catchlights. Use with moderate power settings to avoid overexposure on reflective subjects. When transporting, collapse the umbrella gently and store in a protective sleeve to maintain the fabric and frame integrity.
