  • ຄວາມສະຫວ່າງທົ່ວໄປ: Position the reflector at a moderate distance from your subject to achieve even, broad lighting.
  • ຕື່ມແສງ: Use the reflector as a secondary light source to fill in shadows created by a main light, reducing contrast.
  • ການຄວບຄຸມທິດທາງ: The conical shape helps to direct light forward, minimizing spill and concentrating the light output.
  • ການແຜ່ກະຈາຍ: The white interior surface provides a softer, more diffused light compared to bare flash or silver reflectors.
