While softboxes are designed to give off soft, diffused light that is perfectly balanced to enhance your photos, softbox grids give you control over the direction and spread of that light. By pairing a softbox grid with your softbox lighting unit, you can easily create optimal lighting conditions for any scene or subject. Softbox grids are lightweight and fold into small shapes, making fabric softbox grids easy to store and travel with. We offer softbox grids and strips in many sizes and shapes to fit a wide range of softboxes.
Whether you're shooting portraits, product photography, or video, we have a selection of softbox grids to make sure you have the best lighting possible. With top brands like Profoto, Chimera, Westcott, and more, you can be sure that your softbox grids are designed to do their job well and last as long as you need them.
What Does Adding a Softbox Grid Do?
When you add a softbox grid to your softbox lighting unit, you are controlling the light's tendency to spread and fill space. The fabric walls within the softbox grid keep each square of light from spreading out by focusing the light in the direction of the subject.
Does a Softbox Grid Increase Contrast?
Using a softbox grid does not directly increase the contrast of an image, but it can help. Softbox grids reduce light spread, focusing a harder light onto the subject for more clearly defined shadow edges. If you use a softbox grid along with other methods to increase image contrast, you are more likely to be satisfied with the results.
