The Elinchrom Rotalux Octabox 175 cm is known for its huge surface area and superior construction. This "giant Octa" produces an extremely powerful wraparound light, making it a favorite among fashion, group and advertising photographers. Its size is so impressive that many photographers use it as their sole light source to achieve subtle lighting and open, soft shadows.
The octagonal shape of the Octabox creates natural, circular reflections (catchlights) in the subject's eyes, reminiscent of a large window or the sun. The silver interior maximizes light output, and the included removable inner and outer diffusers allow for precise adjustment of light softness and contrast to suit the shooting situation.
You can further fine-tune the light with Elinchrome accessories. Optional deflectors eliminate hot spots in the center. Hooded diffusers and fabric honeycomb grids are also available, allowing you to narrow the light beam and precisely control the stray light even on large sets.
Compatibility: Elinchrom flash heads (requires Rotalux Speed Ring). Adapters for other flash brands also available.
The package includes: Rotalux Octabox 175 cm frame, silver inner fabric, inner and outer diffusers, and a carrying bag.
