The "pop-up" folding reflector for atmospheric reflections
The Walimex pro 5in1 wavy folding reflector is a versatile reflector for the demanding photographer. The gold and silver finish provides a warm moody reflection, perfect for skin tones, while the black finish can be used to darken subjects. The reflector is easy to transport, quick to set up, easy to use and just as quick to stow away. The different surfaces offer a wide range of possibilities when creating photos, but also in video.

Easy handling, fast setup
The folding reflector is the ideal companion for fast, sophisticated brightening or shading of motifs. Thanks to its two large, comfortable handles, it can easily be held by an assistant. But the 5in1 Folding Reflector is also equipped for mounting on tripods: Thanks to its 3/8" thread, it can also be attached to lamp tripods or other holding devices with a corresponding screw. The use on location with the help of an assistant is especially grateful for example in interview situations where there is no time for a long shining in.

5 functions in one
The construction of the 5in1 folding reflector could hardly be more efficient: The actual reflector frame is permanently covered with a diffuser. With this you take away the hardness from light sources and the hard shadow edges from the subject. The diffuser creates a soft, wide-area illumination of the motif from a punctual one. The reflector comes with a reversible cover with zipper, whose four sides can be used individually:

• Gold-silver "wavy": this special coating consists of a zigzag pattern of alternating gold and silver stripes. Together, they reflect the incident light, creating a warm, yet bright illumination for the subject. This color works especially well for skin tones, as it also gives sunlight a warmer tone.
• White: The classic reflector color for brightening with soft light. The light is not reflected selectively as with silver, but loses intensity as it bounces off the reflector in a spherical shape. On the other hand, the lighting effect is similar to that of a diffuser.
• Silver: Guarantees the maximum light output, which can work wonders especially in bad weather conditions. Silver is not recommended in full sun.
• Black: The black side of the reversible cover naturally reflects virtually no light. It is suitable for indirect use to reduce reflections, but is actually intended for direct shading.

Uncomplicated assembly, quick stowage
The "pop-up" principle, known from small tents, is the ideal solution also for reflectors like this one. A ring of flexible material stretches the reflector open. When folded, it takes up less than half the diameter. When unpacked, the ring pops open to full size, so the reflector is stretched in under a second. After use, you remove the cover and simply fold the reflector back up: To do this, simply deform the ring as if you were trying to create a figure eight on the bike. Continue turning the two handles against each other until you have a figure 8. At this you can then put the two rings on top of each other - et voilá! Then immediately pack the reflector in its bag so that it can not bounce again.
