Portable Light Modification Kit

The Elinchrom set provides four 5.5" deflectors in silver, gold, frost and translucent finishes for use with Softlite reflectors and Rotolux softboxes. It is designed for photographers who need to alter flash colour temperature and diffusion quality on location or in the studio. Two mounting rods are included to attach the discs to a 7mm umbrella receptacle on the flash head.

Passive Thermal Management

The deflectors operate without power draw, fans or electronic components, so they add no heat or noise to a lighting setup. Each 14cm disc simply clips into place and modifies the existing flash output through reflection or diffusion. Their lightweight construction keeps the overall rig balanced and easy to reposition during a shoot.

Upgrade From Bare Reflector Output

This kit replaces the direct, unmodified light from a bare Softlite reflector or Rotolux softbox with controllable bounce and colour shift options. The jump is worthwhile when a session demands warmer skin tones, higher contrast specular highlights or softer shadow transitions without swapping the main modifier. It does not suit photographers who need larger diameter diffusion panels or integrated grid systems.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the deflector discs to my flash head and which step causes problems?

Slide a rod into the 7mm umbrella receptacle on the flash head, then snap the chosen disc onto the rod; the step often missed is fully seating the rod so the disc cannot rotate loose during shooting.

Which deflector surface degrades first and what replacement schedule should I expect?

The silver coating shows microscopic scratches earliest from frequent handling and cleaning; plan to swap that disc after roughly two years of daily studio use while the gold, frost and translucent discs typically last longer.

What thermal or output limit appears first when the flash fires continuously at full power?

The 14 cm discs absorb a measurable share of the flash energy, so the head's over-temperature protection trips before the deflectors themselves warp, forcing a cool-down pause after extended bursts.
