Radome

Radome is an annular reflector installed in front of film and television lights. The light quality is neutral and hard, and it is often used as an eye-catching lamp indoors, which makes the light emitted more natural and can also simulate natural light.

One of the lighting skills when shooting products and food is to use a more directional light source, which also makes the object more stereoscopic and the texture better displayed.

Radome allows us to soften the light without weakening the shadow, add reflector around the product, enhance the shadow and emphasize the direction of the light.

The light from the radome is uniform and can naturally be used as the main light in the process of attenuation; When shooting portraits, the skin contrast is moderate, the skin is soft and delicate, the shadow transition is good, and the eyes are strong. Radome is also called beauty mask. The photos taken by the radome will be more dramatic. This soft light tool can help models keep more highlights on their faces, which is mostly used for fashion portraits.

It can also be equipped with a honeycomb, and an additional honeycomb grille can be installed to better control the light and prevent the light from overflowing.

(Make sure that the light does not shine on the background)

Reasonable use of radome can greatly improve the light utilization rate of lamps and the shooting efficiency.

The material of radome will also affect the reflectivity, and the quality of radome is directly determined by high reflectivity and light attenuation.
