Full details
The LEE Filters Reflector Pack is designed for photographers and videographers seeking to creatively control and enhance light in their shoots, both in the studio and on location. It offers a versatile set of eight reflective surfaces to add vibrant effects to your imagery. A potential consideration is that the sheets may require mounting for optimal rigidity, especially for dynamic shoots.

FAQs
What is the difference between mirror and soft finishes?
Mirror finishes provide a direct, sharp reflection, increasing light intensity. Soft finishes diffuse the light, offering a gentler, more spread-out fill.
Can I use these reflectors with strobes?
Yes, they are designed to work with various light sources, including strobes, continuous lights, and natural light.
How large are the reflector sheets?
Each sheet measures approximately 610mm x 530mm (24" x 21").
Do I need to buy separate mounting boards?
Mounting boards are not included but are recommended for easier handling and stability. You can use readily available materials like polystyrene or foam core.
Are the sheets durable?
The sheets are designed for repeated use, but care should be taken to avoid scratching or creasing them.
Can I mix and match different reflector types in one shoot?
Absolutely. Combining different reflectors can create complex and nuanced lighting effects tailored to your creative vision.
Troubleshooting
Reflector sheets are bending or not staying in place.
Mount the sheets onto a rigid board (polystyrene, foam core) for added stability. Use clamps or stands to hold them securely.
Reflections appear too harsh or create unwanted glare.
Experiment with softer finishes (soft gold, soft silver) or increase the distance between the reflector and the subject. You can also diffuse the primary light source before it hits the reflector.
Fingerprints or smudges are visible on the reflective surface.
Handle the sheets with clean hands or microfiber gloves. Gently wipe smudges with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides a variety of light qualities from hard to soft.
- Lightweight and portable for on-the-go shooting.
- Cost-effective way to add professional lighting effects.
- Durable construction for repeated use.
- Enhances subject detail and adds dimension to images.
Cons
- Sheets may require additional support (e.g., mounting boards) for stability.

- Not as robust as rigid reflector panels for very demanding conditions.
- Reflected light intensity depends heavily on the primary light source.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The reflector sheets can be used directly out of the pack. For increased stability and control, especially in windy conditions or when precise positioning is needed, it is recommended to mount them onto a rigid board such as polystyrene or foam core using tape or adhesive. They can then be held by an assistant, mounted on a light stand with a clamp, or propped up.
Compatibility: These reflectors are compatible with any photographic or videographic lighting setup, working with natural light, strobes, or continuous lights. They are suitable for use with cameras of any brand or type.
Care: To maintain the reflective quality, handle the sheets with clean hands or gloves. After use, gently wipe away any dust or smudges with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the reflective surface. Store the sheets flat in their original packaging or a protective sleeve to prevent creasing or scratching.
