Aputure Light Dome SE 85cm x 45cm fiberglass 1.5-2.5 stops 45deg honeycomb grid S-Type Bowens mount 1.1kg

Key Features

• 1.5- and 2.5-Stop Front Diffusers
• 1.5-Stop Removable Interior Diffuser
• 45° Fabric Grid
• Soft, Wraparound Quality of Light

This Light Dome SE from Aputure is a 16-sided modifier with a 35.5" diameter. It has a soft wraparound quality that is a hallmark of this shape, especially when used close to the subject. It also has a few surprises that offer you several contrast options. The 1.5 and 2.5-stop front diffusion fabrics offer ways to manipulate the light. Also a removable 1.5-stop internal baffle softens the initial point source of light and allows it to fill the entire softbox more evenly. The 45° fabric grid provides directional control to enable selective lighting. The Light Dome SE has a Bowens-type speed ring compatible with lights such as the Amaran 100d, 100x, 200d, & 200x, Aputure LS 600d Pro, 300d II, 300x, and the 120d II, as well as many other lights that use this popular mount.

Flexible Fiberglass Rods

16 Lightweight and flexible fiberglass rods ensure the Light Dome SE maintains a circular shape for catchlights and light falloff.

Highly Reflective Fabric:

The Light Dome SE utilizes the same highly-reflective material as the Light Dome II, for maximum output.

Two Quality Diffusion Fabrics:

The Light Dome SE gives you the flexibility to create softer light, but includes two front 1.5- and 2.5-stop diffusion fabrics for light quality options.

Internal 1.5 Stop Baffle:

The internal baffle softens the initial point source of light, allowing it to fill the entire softbox more evenly.

Fabric Control

The 45° fabric grid provides directional control to enable selective lighting.

Used individually or together, the fabrics allow you to perfectly match the degree of light diffusion to the current needs of your shots and frames. Oval Reflection The Aputure Light Dome SE softbox uses the proven solutions known from the Light Dome II model. By placing 16 rods in reinforced fabric guides, it has been possible to give the modifier a 32-sided shape that is very close to a circle. This allows it to produce beautiful oval reflections that will take your films and videos to an even higher level of professional execution! Grid-in-kit Want to precisely illuminate your chosen subject or space without scattering light into the rest of the frame? Just reach for the included honeycomb (grid). Attached with a sturdy Velcro strap, the grid will allow you to give the right contrast and direct the light exactly as you need it!

All you need to do is place the rods in special guides and then use the Bowens mount to connect to the flash. The entire assembly of the dome will only take a dozen seconds!
