Product Information
Full details
The Broncolor L40 is an essential accessory for professional photographers using Broncolor Siros, Siros S, or Siros L lighting heads who need a more traditional light distribution pattern. It provides a larger, more conventional shape than the compact reflectors often bundled with Siros kits, making it a powerful tool for achieving consistent studio lighting; however, it does require additional space in your lighting kit compared to the smaller, included alternatives.

FAQs
Is the L40 compatible with non-Broncolor lights?
No, the L40 uses the proprietary Broncolor bayonet mount designed specifically for Broncolor lighting heads.
Does this reflector fit the Siros L?
Yes, the L40 is fully compatible with the Broncolor Siros, Siros S, and Siros L product lines.
Can I use grids with this reflector?
The L40 is designed for standard light distribution; check your specific Broncolor accessory catalog for compatible honeycomb grids that fit this diameter.
How do I clean the interior?
Gently wipe the interior with a soft, clean, dry microfiber cloth. Do not use liquids or chemicals.
Why is this better than the standard reflector included with the Siros?
The L40 offers a more traditional and slightly broader light shape, which is often preferred for more natural-looking portraiture and studio work.
Troubleshooting
Reflector feels loose when mounted
Check the locking mechanism on the Siros head for debris and ensure the reflector is fully rotated to the locked position.
Uneven light output or hot spots
Verify that the flash tube is correctly seated in the lighting head and that the reflector is centered correctly.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To mount the L40, align the reflector with the bayonet mount on your Siros head and turn clockwise until it clicks into place. Ensure it is fully locked to prevent accidental detachment. For maintenance, keep the interior surface free of dust and fingerprints using a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents as they can damage the reflective coating. When not in use, store the reflector in a padded equipment bag to prevent denting or deformation of the metal edge.
