70cm (27.5") SILVER Interior Beauty Dish with Honeycomb Grid
F-010203-P
The 70cm silver interior beauty dish is a high-quality modifier which provides a soft, gentle light source from your lights with a little more contrast compared to a softbox. The soft yet contrasting light is perfect for accentuating facial features and helps to pull each single detail available from your subject, all whilst giving a unique catch light in the eyes of your subject. With many different fittings available, the interchangeable dish simply attaches to the front of your flash, strobe or light. This is the ideal modifier to provide a unique, high drama look to your photos which make it great for shooting beauty, makeup, fashion or portrait still life photography.
Highly Reflective Silver Interior
This Dish attaches to the mount on the front of your flash and encapsulates the bulb to allow light to fall on the highly reflective silver interior. This Design Spreads the light evenly for maximum efficiency. As the interior is silver and therefore much more reflective, specular highlights of the subject are more pronounced and detailed, perfect for drawing out and accentuating facial features of your subject.
Wrap Around Light
The deflector dish reflects the light back onto the interior silver surface on the beauty dish, helping to cover the entire interior evenly with light, to create a light that wraps around the subject. This means that the beauty dish is an ideal modifier for portrait photography as it helps to perfectly surround the subject in light.
Contrasting Light for Feature Accentuation
Due to the shape of the Beauty Dish and the fact that the light bounces around the interior, it helps create a light with more contrast compared to using a Softbox. The silver interior of the beauty dish creates a cooler and more contrastinglight and look compared to the softer and more natural looking light created by its white counterpart.
Round Catchlights
The round shape of the beauty dish also helps to create pleasing catchlights in the eyes of the subject that replicates a natural light source such as the sun, making it ideal for beauty and portrait photography.
Shadow Reducing Diffuser Cap
Included with the beauty dish is a diffuser cap, which simply slides over the outer edge, and this further helps to further soften the light being produced and to reduce any unwanted shadows on your subject. The extra diffusion will help the light fall more naturally onto your subject, ideal for beauty and portrait shots when you are trying to get the most accurate look from your subject.
Light Spill Reduction Honeycomb grid
The honeycomb grid clips onto the outer edge of the beauty dish which helps to narrow and better angle the light source, reducing any unwanted light spill and potential loss of light.
Interchangeable Speedring
The beauty dish features a unique and revolutionary design feature which allows this to be used with a wide range of different flashes thanks to the interchangeable speedring. The compatible speedrings available for the beauty dish includes Bowens, Hensel, Elinchrom, Broncolor, Multiblitz and Profoto. (Please select your prefence in the dropdown box when purchasing). If you have a wide range of different brand flashes, you can simply purchase the necessary speedring to connect your softbox to the mount of your flash units, making this a cost effective and high-quality solution to any modifier requirements.
High Quality Aluminium Construction
The high-quality aluminium construction of the beauty dish is strong and durable, helping to create a dependable modifier that will keep working well for the foreseeable future, ideal for studio-based photography. It requires no further construction or assembly as it simply attaches directly to the mount of your flash, reducing any unnecessary loss of time during your shoot.
The beauty dish is a high-quality and widely used modifier in the photography industry, helping to create a soft and gentle light source. The design helps to create a dramatic and unique lighting style without flaw, helping to create eye catching images for beauty, makeup fashion or portrait photography.

Q&A’s
What is the difference between a Silver and a White Beauty Dish?
- In terms of the softness of light, both types of beauty dish will be similar (provided that both beauty dishes are the same size, and are at the same distance away from your subject), however the Silver Beauty Dish will give you a more contrasty light with more specular highlights. The White Beauty Dish on the other hand, will result in a more natural looking lighting. A Silver Beauty Dish will also accentuate the texture in the skin more than a White Beauty Dish would.
The example photos below were both taken with a 55cm beauty dish with the identical camera settings (ISO 100, f/11 1/125 second). The one on the left was taken with a Silver Beauty Dish, and the one on the right was taken with a White Beauty Dish. Notice how much brighter the highlights are on the left photograph compared to the one on the right.
What is the best size of beauty dish to get?
- It depends on what you're shooting and the effect that you would like in your photographs.
As a general rule of thumb, smaller modifiers will produce a harsher light, and larger modifiers will produce a softer light. If you're going to be shooting mainly tight head shots, then you may be able to get away with a 42cm beauty dish, however the 55cm and the 70cm will give you more coverage.
Please see video below to see the difference in the quaity of light between the three sizes of Beauty dishes that we do
Will this Beauty Dish fit onto an Elinchrom Quadra flash head?
- Our Beauty Dishes won’t fit onto Elinchrom Quadra heads directly, as they are designed for use with the full-sized studio flash heads. However, if you have the adapter which allows you to use full-sized Elinchrom fitting modifiers on your Quadra heads, then our beauty dishes should fit okay.
What is the weight of the BD including the honeycomb ?
- The 70cm Beauty Dish with Grid weighs approximately 4.5kg

Product Reviews
Amazing!
Bought this as I was building my own studio. In the past I was used to profoto as thats what the studio I used to rent used. I can honestly say I can see no difference, this is such a good cheaper alternative which does exactly the same job!
I bought it with a profoto fitting and it was really easy to put together and attach to my light. I would definitely recommend!
Seems a good bit of Kit
Seems a good bit of kit, the grid is a wee bit flimsy - but they usually are! Nice light from it. Was using it on a Lencarta head.

PIXAPRO 70cm SILVER Interior Beauty Dish with Honeycomb Grid
The Beauty Dish is really good relating with the price I paid. Anyway to be picky I don't like the grid that doesn't will fit well on the Beauty Dish and the Elinchrom adapter isn't well done in fact there is a little play between it and my Elinchhrome rx 600
Does what a beauty dish does
What can I say works as a beauty light should. If you don't know what they do have a look on YouTube.
So I'll concentrate on the dish itself. All metal construction, including the honey comb grid, comes with diffuser sock. The speed rings are interchangeable ( you only get the one you ordered with it. The others are sold separately.) so you can attach it to different makes of flash. As it's basically an all in one metal dish there's not much to go wrong, except perhaps denting it. Even then it probably still do it job.
Be warned though this is a studio dish, it is large and quite heavy especially with the grid and flash attached. So you need a hefty tripod and boom. If you have converted your garage or spare bedroom, you may wish to opt for a smaller size.
