34" Silver Parabolic Umbrella UB-85S
The Godox UB-85S is a 34-inch silver parabolic umbrella designed for photographers and videographers who need precise control over light direction and intensity. Its parabolic shape allows the light source to be moved along the shaft to adjust focus from a broad flood to a concentrated spot. The reflective silver interior maximises light output for detailed illumination. This modifier suits studio and location work where adaptable light shaping is essential.
Simple shaft mounting with focus adjustment
The umbrella mounts on a standard light stand via its central shaft and opens like a traditional umbrella for quick setup. Adjusting the light focus is done by sliding the strobe or continuous light along the shaft, which requires a compatible bracket or holder not included with the umbrella. The main difficulty arises if the light fixture lacks a suitable mounting point or if the shaft diameter does not match the stand, preventing secure attachment or smooth focus changes.
Check light mount compatibility and stand stability
Before ordering, verify that your light fixture has a Bowens mount or equivalent bracket that accepts an umbrella shaft and allows axial movement for focusing. Ensure your light stand can support the combined weight of the umbrella and the light head without tipping. Confirm the shaft diameter matches your stand's umbrella hole, typically 7 mm or 8 mm, as an incorrect fit will prevent secure mounting. Buyers who need a diffuser cover or a different interior coating such as white or translucent should look for a separate model.

Questions about this item
How do I check the 34" silver parabolic umbrella is focusing light correctly after mounting it on a strobe?
Move the light source along the shaft until the beam changes from a broad flood to a tight spot; the silver interior should throw a crisp, high-output circle on the subject with no dark centre.
What comes in the box with the UB-85S and what must I supply myself?
The package contains only the 34" silver parabolic umbrella frame and canopy; you must provide a compatible light stand, strobe or continuous head, and any mounting bracket or speed-ring required by your fixture.
Which Godox parabolic size should I choose between the 34" UB-85S and larger models?
Pick the 34" UB-85S when you need a portable modifier that still gives focused, high-contrast silver output; step up to a larger diameter only if you want wider coverage and softer fall-off for bigger subjects.
