45" Optical White Satin Umbrella

The 45" Optical White Satin Umbrella is a professional lighting modifier designed for photographers and videographers. Its large canopy provides broad coverage for portraits, group shots and video sets. The white satin interior diffuses and reflects light to create soft, flattering illumination with reduced harsh shadows. A removable black cover adds versatility by allowing the umbrella to function as a reflector or to block unwanted spill.

Upgrade from smaller or fixed modifiers

This umbrella replaces smaller light modifiers that cannot cover large groups or wide scenes evenly. The jump is worth it when you need a single source to illuminate multiple subjects or a broad area with consistent softness. The removable cover extends utility beyond diffusion, letting you switch between bounce and reflection without buying a second accessory. It is not for shooters who need focused, directional output or compact kits that prioritise minimal packed size.

Simple setup with durable frame

The umbrella mounts on standard light stands via a 7mm tapered tip that fits common umbrella brackets. Durable fiberglass ribs flex under tension without snapping, while a steel shaft adds rigidity for frequent assembly. A PVC case is included for protected transport and storage. The main installation issue occurs if the tip diameter does not match the bracket, requiring an adapter that is not included. Ensure the ribs seat fully in the hub before tightening to avoid uneven canopy tension.

Questions about this item

What shaft diameter does the 7 mm tapered tip fit?

The 7 mm tapered tip is designed for standard light-stand spigots and umbrella brackets that accept a 7 mm shaft.

How do you switch between shoot-through and reflective use?

Slide the removable black cover off the white satin canopy to use it as a shoot-through diffuser; zip the cover back on for reflective bounce lighting.

When should the fiberglass ribs or canopy be replaced?

Replace the canopy if the white satin fabric tears or yellows, and replace ribs if any fiberglass strand cracks or loses spring tension.
