40" (101.6cm) Black/Silver Umbrella
E-010202
The 40inch” Black/Silver umbrella is an economical way to modify your lighting. It also produces a soft yet specular quality of light.
Light Efficiency
This style of umbrella is designed so that the light is pointed away from your subject. The light is reflected towards your subject. This produces a broad soft light source. This also gives a specular quality. The umbrella features a highly reflective silver-coloured surface. This results in maximum light efficiency. The black outer-surface prevents light from leaking through the surface. This also absorbs any unwanted light from being reflected.
High Quality Construction
The umbrella features a lightweight eight-spoked metal frame. The shaft is a 8mm suitable for use with most brands of lights. The umbrella’s surface is made from high-quality nylon for durability.
Quick Easy Setup
The Umbrella collapses down into a compact form factor. This makes storage and transportation easy.

Q&A’s
Will this Umbrella fit my Elinchrom head?
- Our umbrellas have an 8mm shaft, so it won't go through the Centre of the light like the 7mm shaft umbrellas would.
However some Elinchrom heads have a slot underneath the angle adjustment lever (as shown in the photo below).
If your Elinchrom light has this, then you should be able to use this umbrella with no problem.
Is this umbrella compatible with the Profoto B2?
- Yes the umbrella is compatible with the Profoto B2, as it has a shaft diameter of 8mm.
