Product Information

Full details

The Godox BDR-W55 Beauty Dish is a professional-grade lighting modifier tailored for portrait and fashion photographers who require soft, even illumination with gentle highlights. It excels at creating a natural look that adds depth and dimension to facial features, though users should note that its 55cm size requires a sturdy light stand to manage its physical footprint effectively during studio sessions.

FAQs

Can I use this with non-Godox lights?

Yes, as long as your studio light uses a standard Bowens S-type mount.

Is the deflector removable?

The deflector is integrated into the design to ensure optimal light bouncing properties and should not be removed.

Does this dish work for full-body shots?

While it is best for portraits and headshots, it can be used for full-body work if the light is placed further away, though the softness will diminish.

How do I clean the interior?

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust. Avoid water or liquid cleaners as they may affect the reflective finish.

Can I use this outdoors?

Yes, but use a heavy-duty sandbagged light stand, as the 55cm dish acts as a sail in windy conditions.

Troubleshooting

Light is not seating properly on the mount.

Ensure the Bowens mount locking pins are fully retracted and the dish is rotated until it clicks.

Light spill is too wide.

Consider using an optional honeycomb grid (sold separately) to direct the light output more tightly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Soft, flattering light quality ideal for beauty and portraits
Sturdy metal build quality for long-term reliability
Universal Bowens mount ensures wide compatibility
Includes diffusion fabric for versatile light control

Cons

Requires a C-stand or heavy-duty light stand due to size and weight
Fixed 55cm diameter is not collapsible, making it less portable
Requires significant space for storage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Align the three pins of the Bowens mount on the back of the beauty dish with the slots on your flash head.
Rotate the dish clockwise until you hear an audible click or feel the locking mechanism secure.
If using the diffusion fabric, stretch the elastic edge over the front lip of the dish ensuring it is evenly distributed.

Compatibility:

This modifier is compatible with all Godox Bowens-mount strobes (such as the AD600, SK, and QT series) and third-party lights featuring a standard Bowens S-type mount.

Care:

Clean the white interior using a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust.
Do not use chemical cleaners on the reflective coating.
Store in a protective case when not in use to prevent dents or surface scratches.
