Godox RFT-2 Background Reflector

Its primary purpose is to create an oval-shaped light throw, ideal for illuminating backgrounds or providing backlighting effects to separate a subject from its background.

It uses the popular Bowens mount, making it compatible with a wide range of Godox flashes and lights from other brands that feature this mount.

While technically possible, it's not its intended use. The oval shape is best suited for background or rim lighting effects rather than broad, even illumination of a primary subject.

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For tougher smudges, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure it's completely dry before reattaching to a flash.

No, this reflector is designed for studio strobes and flashes with a Bowens mount. It will not directly fit standard speedlights unless they are mounted in a bracket that provides a Bowens adapter.

You can expect a smooth, even oval pool of light. The silver interior helps ensure efficient reflection and consistent light output.

No, setup is straightforward. It typically slides onto the Bowens mount and is secured with a locking mechanism, usually taking just a few seconds.

Ensure the Bowens mount adapter on your flash is clean and free of debris. Tighten the mounting screws or locking mechanism firmly but do not overtighten.

Check that the reflector is centered on the flash head. Ensure there are no obstructions between the flash and the reflector's interior. Adjust the position of the flash or reflector if necessary.

Adjust the distance of the reflector from the background or subject. Moving it closer can concentrate the light; moving it further away can spread it. Experiment with different flash power settings.

Gently clean with a soft microfiber cloth. Minor scratches may slightly affect light uniformity but are often negligible in practical use. Avoid further damage.
