12 x 8 in Light Reflector, 3 in 1 Photography Reflector Cardboard

I had some other reflectors but they were the circular kind that were kind of like car windshield sunshades. They wouldn't stand up on their own, and I always had to get my husband to hold them. These are perfect, because they fold, which allows them to stand on their own. I love that there's a reflective side and a black side for absorbing light. I haven't noticed any kind of weird color cast to my photos, either. For food photography, they're a good size, as long as you aren't shooting too large of a scene. I'm usually photographing a single recipe, and these work great for that purposes.

Simple, good quality, a must for product photography

Worked well to take photos of place settings / etc. Having both a black and white side made the more useful.

I was using bouncer with the collapsible reflector, Since i am a solo photographer, multiple adjustments with the flexible reflector required to change stands and angle. With Meking 3 in 1 reflector cardboard it can just stand next to the product. The photo indicates with white fills and black substract on my studio light, it works well, The black one enhanced the contrast of the detail of alice band well, I love it. For the price, it is not cheap, but this item is not just a cardboard, my first impression is sturdy, and easy of use. if you use it frequently, it will help you to make images more enjoyable. I ordered 2 one for 17x12 another for 12x8 , that will help me to use for different size of objects. We are looking for combo price for different sizes. that will be nice.

Cuando empecé en la fotografía de comida, usaba unos reflectores circulares que parecían parasoles de carro. No se sostenían y siempre terminaba pidiéndole a mi esposa que me ayudara a sujetarlos. Era frustrante. Decidí probar estos reflectores… y fue amor a primera foto. Se doblan, se quedan de pie solos y me dan la libertad de trabajar sin ayuda. Su lado reflectante ilumina perfectamente, y el lado negro me ayuda a absorber luz cuando lo necesito. Lo mejor es que no alteran los colores de mis imágenes. Ahora cada vez que fotografío una receta, sé que la luz estará exactamente como la quiero. No solo son útiles, ¡son imprescindibles!

These 3 pictures are of one corner of the reflectors I received. The Amazon box was undamaged so I have no idea when this damage occurred. I returned them for an identical replacement. They came in an Amazon plastic bag. They were nowhere near as damaged as the first shipment, but damaged on one corner they were. Since the damage was only slight I decided to keep them. The manufacturer needs to package these cards differently to PROTECT the corners since there is no way to prevent or check for any damage once in the manufacturers packaging. And Amazon should always ship them in a BOX, not a plastic bag as this will also reduce the possibility of damage in shipping. Are you guys at Amazon hearing me? No more plastic bag for easily damaged goods! Other than all of that, they work as advertised.

Perfect size and works great for taking photos.

I don't know how to use this effectively but use it as a background for recording my hands. I guess it absorbes more light than other materials.

i realy like i have differnt type of reflictors this is amazing also the shipping packaging grat and its reached to me safe 99% , its cardboard hard enough, light as well , really recommended

Well made and a good size as reflectors or diffusers. i am pleased with my purchase.

Does what it has to do! I love that it has the 3 different colors! Will purchase again when it gets damaged

Well. Maybe useful if you have one small item you photograph over and over but also... you could make this. The white is just a white paper glued to the harder substrate and it had a small stain on it when it arrived (I think someone may have used and returned). That’s not the sellers fault and I’m sure they would have replaced but I couldn’t justify spending more than $10 on this. The black would create the best background IMO and I didn’t find the silver to do much in terms of improving the photo and I tried a few ways. This would have to be three times the size to justify the price.
