The StudioKing SK-BD550 consists of a white beauty dish (55 cm) that comes with a honeycomb grid, a diffusion cloth, and a reflector. As the name suggests, you can photograph people in the most beautiful way with a beauty dish. It provides a wide spread and a lovely contrast, highlighting details of a person (such as skin tones or muscles) in the most flattering manner. Compared to a silver beauty dish, the white color offers even softer light.

How does it work?

You attach the reflector to the three "rods" on the inside of the beauty dish. This reflects and distributes the light. You can use the honeycomb grid to direct the flash more precisely. The diffusion cloth allows you to soften the light. Various adapter rings are available as options; they are not included in the package.

Which brands of flash units can I use the beauty dish with?

You can easily use this beauty dish with many different brands, including Bowens, Broncolor, Elinchrom, Falcon Eyes, Hensel, Multiblitz, and Linkstar. Adapter rings for all these brands can be found in the optional accessories. In addition to the 152 mm adapter rings, you can also connect this beauty dish to adapters with a diameter of 144 mm. This allows you to save a lot of money, as you won’t need to purchase the original accessories anymore.
