The Translucent Lastolite Tri-Grip Reflector serves
for multiple purposes:
- Light Reflector (e.g. our macro flash)
- Light shade (you lose some f-stops though, about 2 at least)
We are very pleased with the Lastolite Translucent Tri-Grip Reflector
as it:
- quite big unfolded
- keeps in shape
- can be held with one hand (yes the Tri-Grip makes a big difference)
- Fits easily in our Nature Trekker AW II
- packs fine
 
Here are the three situations we use the reflector:
- Reflector for macro flash (works just fine)
- Sun shade/diffuser (here we would like to have a much more transparent
diffuser, but of course as Tri-Grip)
- Shade for the lens hood:
In the above scene we used the reflector as a shade to
avoid sun reflections into the lens (the lens hoods for zooms cannot
be optimal. Here the hood is made for 70mm while we use the lens at
200mm).
Conclusion
The Lastolite Translucent Tri-Grip Reflector
is now part of our standard equipment. We would like it to be more
transparent though to have more light available.
