After setting up the Glow Butterfly Scrim Kit, you'll have a robust 8x8 foot light modifier at your disposal, capable of transforming any intense light source, whether natural or artificial, into a soft, evenly diffused glow. This expansive diffusion surface panel is supported by a collapsible aluminum frame, designed for easy assembly and adaptability with interchangeable light modifying, light absorbing, or opaque screens. Without any modifications, the butterfly scrim kit produces a softer, more diffused light than the raw intensity of a bare flash head. However, with the addition of the Fabric Grid for the 8x8' Butterfly, you gain the ability to direct and tame the light dispersion. The spread of light is narrowed to approximately 30 degrees, while maintaining the same output level. While the reflection of the butterfly in glossy products, catchlights in eyes, and automotive subjects may no longer be sleek and uninterrupted, it will serve as the largest non-direct gridded light source available. The fabric grid attaches securely to the aluminum butterfly frame in the same manner as the diffusion material, using binding straps. Once connected, it stays firmly in place, giving you complete control over your lighting setup. This durable, versatile, and portable light modifier is easy to set up and ideal for both professional and hobbyist photographers and videographers.
