Manfrotto Bottletop Refletor 5 em 1 95 cm

The pop-up mechanism is surprisingly sturdy for such a compact 95cm size, and it folds down easily into the included pouch. I’ve been using it mostly with the sunfire/silver combo to bounce harsh window light, and the results are noticeably softer than I expected from a portable reflector.

I was a bit skeptical about a pop-up reflector, but the elasticated covers slip on so easily it’s almost fun. The gold/white side gives a really warm, natural fill that saved a tricky portrait session. Feels sturdy enough to last through many shoots.
