"Hi, I’m Scott Vallance and I am here today on behalf of Expert Village.com. Today we are going to speak a moment or two about reflectors and diffusers. This particular model is called a Flexfield. It comes in a small container and then it pops open and what this is used for is outside where you can bounce the sunlight off of this, have back light on your subject, bounce light off this and open up the shadows on a persons face. It has two sides: a gold side which has kind of a natural warm tone to your subject and the other side is white. It adds a more natural look. They make the same type of reflectors with diffusion material. You can put it between the sun and your subject and it will diffuse the light, make the light on the subject a whole lot more pleasing. That is all we have today. Thank you very much."
