Decided that I could do with a 'proper' reflector instead of foamcore and such ...

What brand would you guys recommend, what are the prices like and where can I get them? Ruby? Cathay? Orient Photo?

I need gold, white or silver and a translucent to scrim/fire a flash through.


I prefer a rectangerlish shape, foldable and am looking at two sizes:

1) around 1m x 1.5m (just normal gold and white or silver, no need shoot thru on this one), and

2) 2.5m x 1.5m (gold and white or silver, I'll need to shoot thru on this one.

Sizes approximate lah.


Looking for something that doesn't flake or peel so easily like the one BP has, but pleeeaze don't say CA Sunbounce. I would die to have those, but they simply cost outta this world!

Thanks for reading guys.

I like Paul (PQ23), but I remember BP bitching about his reflector. So the flacking stopped and the under-layer is showing? But I need the large one to be a shoot thru as well.

Peeling get from where ah?
