Photek 36″ Hot Shoe Diffuser Panel

If you are using on camera flash (speedlight) and want the same quality of light that the Photek SoftLighterII is providing to photographers all over the world.

Now you can, with the Photek HSD Softlighter. It uses the same umbrella system as the SoftLighterII, except it uses a new front diffuser design which makes it easier to install onto the on camera flash.

The HSD Softlighter has a slit in the middle of the diffuser with Velcro sewn down the length of the slit. This provides easier and quicker mounting of the flash unit, and it also eliminates the hassle of using the big sock mounted on the diffuser of the Softlighter II.

The HSD Softlighter is supplied in Kits or you can purchase just the items you need if you already own a Photek Softlighter.

The following Kits are available:

HSD-40K Kit includes SL-4000 umbrella (36”), SMA-1000 Light Stand Umbrella adapter with an adjustable hot shoe plate, Silver and Gold Discs, and Velcro for mounting on the side of the flash unit
