Profoto 201702 24" Beauty Dish Silver

Profoto 24" Beauty Dish Silver

The Profoto 24" Beauty Dish Silver is a dedicated lighting modifier built for portrait and fashion photographers who want crisp, contrasty light with natural-looking catchlights. Its silver interior adds punch compared with a white dish, while the patented circular front edge produces round highlights in the subject's eyes. The integrated speedring and all-in-one mount design keep the unit compact and foldable for studio or location work.

Upgrade from basic softboxes or umbrellas

Photographers moving up from standard softboxes or umbrellas gain the signature beauty-dish look: harder-edged shadows, more defined facial structure and those distinctive round catchlights. The jump is worth it when you need the specific contrast and sparkle that define beauty and fashion portraits rather than the softer, flatter output of a large diffuser. It does not suit shooters who want broad, wraparound fill or the lowest possible contrast.

Quick setup with integrated speedring

The built-in speedring locks onto compatible Profoto flat-front heads without extra adapters, so assembly takes seconds and the dish folds flat for transport. The convex deflector plate is optimised for those heads; using it on other brands or recessed flash tubes can cause uneven spread or hot spots. Ensure the mount seats fully before shooting to avoid light leaks around the rim.
