RECTANGLE SOFTBOX
Rectangle softboxes are one of the most common softbox shapes there is the market. Because of is shape, it offers a square-ish catchlight in the subject’s eyes and also has a clearer edge with the light drop-off compared to round softboxes or octagon softboxes. They are ideal for lighting head to toe. Perfect for shooting models or for fashion eCommerce photography if you’re shooting mannequins and the like.
DIFFUSER SHEETS
Diffuser sheets (or scrims) are not really softboxes but they are an affordable lighting modifier for natural light or strobes.You can easily mount it on a c-stand backdrop stand. It helps mimic natural daylight because it offers a wider spread of light in a wider area. Perfect to use in fashion or portrait photography because it offers a less obvious light dropoff and also reduces shadows.
OCTABOX SOFTBOX
This particular lighting modifier is round in shape so this means it offers a round catchlight in your subject eyes. It’s usually collapsible, which means it’s easy to set up and pack down. Perfect for portrait and fashion photography.
PARABOLIC SOFTBOX
Parabolic umbrella softboxes are one of the simplest light modifiers both to set up and use. Since it is round in shape, it offers a round catch light in your subject’s eyes. Perfect to use for flash and continuous lights, so for photos and videos. This softbox is deeper in shape so it offers a more subtle light drop-off than rectangle softboxes. Popular for product photography, fashion, flat lays, portraits, and food shoots.
LANTERN SOFTBOXES
This unique lantern lighting softbox modifier is not as directional as other standard softboxes and offers a wider spread of light in a 180º plane. It’s collapsible so it’s easy to set up and pack away. It also gives a round catchlight on your subject’s eyes.
SOFTBALL DIFFUSER
Softball diffusers are quite a unique lighting softbox modifier because it’s circular in shape, and made out of a hard plastic. It offers a round catchlight on your subject’s eyes. Light dispersion is almost 360º. Commonly used for baby and children photography. It has a less obvious light drop-off so it’s perfect for lighting up an entire scene.
BEAUTY DISH SOFTBOX
This collapsible beauty dish softbox is round in shape, which means it offers a round catchlight on your subject’s eyes. Compared to the Octagon softbox , this folding beauty dish is more shallow in depth. This means it’s more harsher and direct, resulting in stronger highlights and shadows. Perfect for dramatic portraits.
DIFFUSER UMBRELLA
Diffuser umbrellas are one of the cheapest lighting modifiers in the market. Since they’re round in shape, it offers a round catchlight in your subject’s eyes. Due to it being an open lighting modifier, that means there’s going to be a lot more light spillage and is less directional not like a softbox. Perfect for travelling as it’s quite compact.
