43" Optical White Satin Collapsible Umbrella

The 43" Optical White Satin Collapsible Umbrella is a light-modifying tool for professional photographers and videographers. It works as a bounce reflector to fill shadows or as a shoot-through diffuser for softer illumination. The interior combines silver, gold and metalized surfaces to shift the colour of reflected light for different moods.

Collapsible frame for rapid setup

The umbrella collapses to a compact form for transport and opens quickly on a standard studio shaft. Mount it on any compatible light stand and angle the shaft toward the subject for bounce or shoot-through use. The only common issue is forgetting to secure the locking nut, which lets the umbrella rotate under its own weight.

Rated for 1000W continuous output

The 43" canopy handles 1000W fixtures without degrading the satin fabric or frame joints. It comfortably covers a single portrait subject or a small product table with even fall-off. For larger groups or wider sets the spread becomes too narrow, so a second umbrella or a larger modifier is needed.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the umbrella is performing correctly after opening it?

Open the umbrella fully and check that the 43" canopy forms an even, taut surface with no wrinkles; the silver, gold and metalized interior should reflect light cleanly when a source is aimed at it.

What comes in the package and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the 43" Optical White Satin Collapsible Umbrella only; a light stand, flash bracket or continuous light source must be bought separately to mount and use it.

Which version of the Westcott 2001 umbrella should I choose for my studio power level?

The 2001 model is rated for 1000W, so select it when your strobes or continuous lights operate at or below that wattage for safe, consistent diffusion.
