Here Karl explains exactly what makes these modifiers so special and why the Para 133 is his modifier of choice. Touching on the physics of lighting and the science behind the parabolic shape, Karl demonstrates the effect of these modifiers, their versatility, as well as a few other, more affordable alternative modifiers.

In this live photography workshop we cover the following:

• The science behind what makes a true parabolic reflector
• When, where and why to use parabolic reflectors (and when not to)
• The different parabolic reflectors and the results
• Modifying parabolic reflectors
• Parabolic reflectors live demonstration — beauty and product shoots
• Lighting modifier comparisons
• Affordable alternative lighting modifiers
• Advantages and disadvantages of different lighting modifiers
