Profoto Beauty Dish

The clue is in the name – beauty dish. That’s because the unique light it creates is perfectly suited to bring out the beauty of the subject. The 20.5″ Profoto White Soft-light Beauty Dish Reflector is designed to give a wide, uniform, and soft light as well as shadow definition when mounted to a Profoto flash head. The gradual fall-off makes it perfect for close-up beauty photography. Creamy, yet crisp light that feels completely natural makes the Soft-light Reflector perfect for people photography. The effect is a pristine, natural look with slightly accentuated shadows that is ideal for portraits and fashion photography. The center disc that blocks out the direct light can be replaced by a semi-opaque opal glass disc to create a center hot spot which also eliminates a donut-hole effect in specular highlights. Each reflector can be supplemented by a honeycomb grid to create soft, toned-down edge-lighting. The Softlight Grid accessory yields 10° coverage for more directed light. The white version delivers a softer and slightly more even light than its silver counterpart that brings more punch and contrast. You can use both with all Profoto lights.
