What is the principle of soft light box for soft light?

The function of the soft box in the studio is to soften the stiff light and make the light quality softer.

Its principle is that it can spread through one or two layers on the basis of ordinary light source, so that the original light irradiation range becomes wider and becomes diffused light. The umbrella-shaped fast soft box uses the soft box to generate uniform and soft light with good color saturation. Soft boxes are mostly made of soft reflective materials. The octagonal soft box and ordinary soft box cloth make the light-emitting surface of the soft box bigger and more uniform, the light is softer and the color is fresher and sharper. There are many kinds of soft boxes, including rectangular soft boxes, square soft boxes, octagonal soft boxes, cylindrical soft boxes, umbrella soft boxes and honeycomb soft boxes. No matter what their shapes are, the effect is similar, and they are all bright and soft colors.

This kind of light is especially suitable for indoor portrait art photos and still life, which is conducive to expressing the texture and color of human skin, making the skin look very delicate, with a large illumination area, without forming a hard shadow edge behind edamame, and looks soft and comfortable. It is an indispensable accessory for the studio.
