Glow Edge 51" Translucent Deep Umbrella 16 Rods

Glow Edge 51" Translucent Deep Umbrella

This 51-inch translucent deep umbrella creates soft, even lighting for portraits and small group shots. Its parabolic shape directs light through the fabric to produce a softbox-like effect with gentle highlights. Photographers working on location or in the studio will appreciate the quick deployment for bridal, fashion and portrait sessions. It is not suited for shooters who need a reflective silver or white bounce surface instead of shoot-through diffusion.

16 Fiberglass Rods and Deep Parabolic Shape

The 16 flexible fiberglass rods support the deep canopy and withstand frequent handling without permanent bending. The large 51-inch diameter wraps light around subjects for flattering fall-off on full-length portraits. When the rod count or canopy depth is insufficient for very large groups or wide-angle environmental shots, a larger modifier would be required. The translucent material transmits light rather than reflecting it, limiting use as a traditional bounce umbrella.

Glow EZ Lock Mechanism and 34.5" Folded Length

The EZ Lock surround-grip system opens and locks the frame with one motion, then releases via a wide button for fast breakdown. Folded to 34.5 inches, the umbrella fits inside the included carry case for transport between locations. Builds that rely on a standard 7 mm or 8 mm shaft diameter will mount directly; other shaft sizes would need an adapter not mentioned in the data. The mechanism adds no extra weight penalty compared with traditional sliding hubs.
