Godox Parabolic Umbrella - Transparent - 130cm

A transparent umbrella allows you to shoot light directly through it, creating a very soft, diffused, and shadowless light. It also functions effectively as a bounce modifier.

Yes, you can use it with a speedlight, but you will need a suitable bracket or mount that can hold both the speedlight and the umbrella, and allow for its positioning relative to the umbrella.

Transparent umbrellas produce the softest, most diffused light. Silver interiors offer higher contrast and reflectivity, while white interiors provide a neutral, soft bounce.

For shoot-through, center the light source directly behind the umbrella. For bounce, aim the light source directly at the center of the umbrella's inner surface.

It can be used outdoors, but its large size makes it susceptible to wind. It is recommended to use it with a sturdy light stand and potentially sandbags for stability.

Use a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.

The diameter of the Godox UB-130D Parabolic Umbrella is 130 centimeters.

Ensure the light source is centered behind the umbrella when shooting through it, or aimed directly at the center of the reflective surface when bouncing. Adjust the distance between the light and the umbrella.

Verify that the umbrella shaft is securely locked into the light stand or bracket mount. Use a sturdy light stand, especially in windy conditions.

Hang the umbrella in a warm, humid environment for a short period or use a garment steamer on a low setting from a distance. Avoid direct heat. Smooth gently.
