PTFBD80 & PTFBD120 FOLDING BEAUTY DISH W/GRID & SPEEDLITE BRACKET
The Pictools Foldable Beauty Dish is the most robust and complete kit of its kind on the market today.  Every aspect of its construction is heavy-duty.  You won’t see any accidentally snapped ribs on this beauty dish!  Setup and break-down is a proverbial snap with the 16 spring-loaded ribs vs. the more common 8 ribs used by most brands.  These are securely held in place by the steel base with Bowens-compatible speed ring. The quality of the light can be adjusted from high contrast to soft thanks to the combination of a silver interior and the white reflector disc.  Even softer lighting is possible by attaching the included diffusion panel.  Directional control of the light is accomplished using the included grid which attaches quickly to the provided Velcro lip. The Pictools Folding Beauty Dish includes a Bowens mount to attach to either a compatible studio light or the included Bowens Speedlite Mount.  When the shoot is complete, just collapse the Beauty Dish and store it all away in the included carrying case.  Available in either 80cm (31”) or 120cm (47”) sizes.  Additional speed rings also available.  MSRP $199.99 80cm; $259.99 120cm.
 
PTSLK80 SPEEDLITE LIGHTING KIT
The Pictools Speedlite Lighting Kit, PTSLK80, allows speedlite photographers the ability to generate high output normally associated with a mono light, using their existing speedlites. This portable kit includes a Tri-Flash bracket that permits the mounting of up to 3 speedlites on the included light stand. But what really takes the output to the next level is the 31” silver lined Octa Umbrella Soft Box!  Designed to mount directly to the Tri-Flash Bracket, this soft box can be angled to suit the situation while the silver lining maximizes the output of the flashes. The light can be softened by attaching the included diffusion panel. MSRP $98.99
