Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most commonly used diffusions for softboxes?

Popular choices include Quarter Grid, Half Grid, Full Grid, SNAPCLOTH, and HiLite. Each offers different levels of softness and transmission. For example, SNAPCLOTH is widely loved for its creamy softness, while Quarter Grid allows for more punch and contrast.

What’s the difference between diffused and direct light?

Direct light creates sharp shadows and highlights, often producing a more dramatic or harsh look. Diffused light scatters the beam, softening shadows and reducing contrast—ideal for flattering skin tones and naturalistic looks.

What’s the difference between diffused light and bounced light?

Both methods soften light, but with key differences. Diffusion passes light through a semi-translucent material, still maintaining some directionality. Bounced light reflects off a surface like a wall or ceiling, spreading it more broadly and creating an even more ambient, less focused effect.

When and why should I use SNAPCLOTH™?

SNAPCLOTH is the go-to when you want the softest, most cinematic diffusion from your light source. It delivers creamy highlights and smooth falloff, making it ideal for beauty shots, interviews, and controlled environments where you want the light to wrap gently around your subject.

How do I clean diffusions and remove wrinkles?

Clean diffusions only with mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals. To remove wrinkles, use a steamer or a steam iron on a low setting. Never fold while wet, and always allow fabric to dry completely before storing.
