Review: Works fine. - Very happy with price and quality of the product.
Review: This is an essential umbrella for anyone with limited space! Great light! - I originally purchased an Impact 7' umbrella and got some very goods shots with it. However, there were workmanship issues with that particular unit, so I opted to spring for the Westcott and do a quick comparison. There are differences to these 2 umbrellas, which are very subtle and I would imagine that most people won't notice or mind the differences. For me, they are significant enough to warrant spending the extra $20. That, and Westcott's quality is very well known, with serious photogs telling me they've had their Westcott gear for decades! I've included a few pics to show those differences. (first pic shows them both side-by-side; Westcott on the left, Impact on the right and 3 feet further away, which is why it looks smaller! ;) ) First, is the build quality of the umbrella: you can see that the material at the apex of the ribs is assembled differently (2nd pic, Westcott; 3rd and 4th pic, Impact). This, to me, show a slightly closer attention to detail for the Westcott. The 4th picture is a crop of the 3rd, showing the 'patch' of material at the top of the umbrella. It doesn't have an effect on the light, but it shows the difference in the attention to assembly quality. Yes, it's a minor thing, but it's telling, nonetheless. The difference in the quality of the silver reflective material is also a bit better on the Westcott; it's reflective without being 'shiny', which translates to a more diffuse lighting. You really can't go wrong with either of those umbrellas, as they will both work great for those tight areas. But for me, there is just enough small differences, when added together, to warrant the upgrade to the Westcott. I'm still very happy with the prom shots (see other reviews) that I got using the Impact umbrella, and firmly believe that this size is essential for single light photo shoots!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have a Nikon SB-900 speedlight, will that give enough light for this umbrella?**
A: In my opinion, you’ll desire a stronger, broader light source. The 900 will work, but may have difficulties filling the full 7’ effectively. Perhaps if you used a diffuser, but you’d be loosing power.

**Q: Any recommendations for a lightstand that would support and hold this large umbrella?**
A: I use this umbrella often. It's fabulous. I use 12' stands, not because of their height, but because they have wide bases. Personally, I'm using the Manfrotto 12' fold flat stands #1004BAC. LOVE that they fold flat and lock together for transport. All metal connections too.

**Q: Does this umbrella fit my Profoto D1 shaft?**
A: Hmm....I have not a clue?  I have no Profoto gear, Elinchrom and Buff stuff, and they work fine in both, I would think they would fit your D1's as well.

**Q: Does it come with the defuser?**
A: This item does not include a diffusion panel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome durable modifier.
*by K***A on September 24, 2015*

This light modifier gives you beautiful and properly exposed light from head to toe with a really flattering soft shadows. I highly recommend buying the diffuser to go with this to give a nice non specular highlights as well as soft shadows. You need a strobe and use it bare bulb so the light hits all 7ft of the umbrella or if you use a speedlight you'll need a minimum of 3 so you can utilize the whole umbrella otherwise it would be the equivalent of using a 40in umbrella as the light would only hitting and bouncing off if the center. There are tons of situations that this umbrella can be beneficial as well as using it as an umbrella to block out harsh mid day sun. I added a photo of it in use but I'm sorry that you can't see the whole thing. I'll add some more pictures of examples I've mentioned earlier.
