Key Features

This Item Includes: Westcott 20" 2-in-1 Gold/White Reflector - Reflector Bag - Westcott 1 Year Warranty

Add warm tones: When shadows appear on one side of a subject's face and the subject has naturally pale skin, use a gold reflector to fill in unwanted shadows while adding warmth to skin tones

Fill in shadows with neutral color: When reflective light needs to maintain neutral in color, use a white reflector. The result will be very soft and natural-looking. We recommend using a white reflector especially when indoors to keep color consistent

Units collapse and fit easily inside travel case: The 2-in-1 reflector quickly collapses into a third of its open size. The included travel case protects your reflector when traveling

Riveted high-quality frames: Reflector frames are double riveted to stand up to years of abuse
