Professional Modifiers - The Godox P Series Parabolic Reflector Range
Looking for a professional, high quality modifier solution? The Godox P Series Parabolic Reflectors are Godox's answer to the high-end reflector systems used on commercial photoshoots and video productions. With versatile features and accessories, here's how you can use these reflectors to take your shoots to the next level.
Why Parabolic Reflectors?
Characterised by their (often) larger size, and deeper, conical shapes, parabolic reflectors are particularly prevalent in the beauty photography industry compared with the standard softbox. Designed to be able to produce soft, yet contrasted and flattering light, parabolic reflectors provide a more dramatic image that can help to highlight particular features, and bring our the detail in texture.

The curve reflects rays in certain angles depending on the light position. When the light is placed most inward, scattered rays are stretched to form a focused and narrow beam with great contrast; when at the focus, rays being collimated to output parallel light that keep both strength and smoothness. When light is moved further out, reflected rays tend to diffuse, with some hit the subject while some spread out away, so light becomes softer with less contrast.
Key Features
The Godox P Series parabolic reflectors are crafted with high-quality materials to ensure durability and reliability, with a highly reflective silver interior surface that helps to maximize light reflection, resulting in a more focused and powerful output. The 24 rods create a smooth, round coverage of quality light with elegant tonal balance that every professional photographer ever dreams of!
The deep design of the reflectors also helps to control light spill and create a more precise lighting effect.
Despite their advanced features, the Godox P Series Parabolic Reflectors are user-friendly and easy to set up. With the light mount positioned pointing facing into the dish, rather than facing the same way as the dish, parabolic reflectors have the benefit of being able to bounce and reflect the light to make the spread soft and reduce hotspots.
Compatibility
Designed with a Bowens S-Type mount, the Godox P Series Parabolic Reflectors are compatible with a wide range of lighting. This versatility allows photographers to easily integrate these reflectors into their existing setup for seamless use, whether you're using them with flash equipment, or LED, from Godox or other brands!
Accessories and Kits
Much like a softbox, these reflectors have optional extras including diffusion covers and grids! These allow you to adapt your light further, specifically, to diffuse or direct the light. With two different diffuser densities, you can select whether you want to diffuse by 1/2 stop or 1 stop.

Comparing to the Broncolor Equivalents
Broncolor's parabolic reflectors are often seen as the industry standard due to their prevalence in commercial studio spaces, however how different are they really from the Godox equivalent? With similar size options and design with 24 rod sections, both brand versions will look and reflect light very similarly. However with a massive price difference, the Godox P Series Parabolic Reflector models are less than half of the price of the Broncolor options! Making them much more accessible to a wider range of photographers, without you having to break the bank for a high quality lighting studio setup.
