The PARABOLIC KP-60CM is a 60 cm parabolic softbox designed to deliver beautifully soft, diffused light for portrait, fashion, product, and video photography. Featuring an Elinchrom fitting, it integrates seamlessly with a wide range of studio strobes and continuous light sources, making it a versatile essential for any studio setup.
Lighter and less bulky than a traditional beauty dish, the KP-60CM ships with a front diffuser, a 4 cm honeycomb grid, and a detachable reflector dish — giving photographers multiple lighting styles from a single modifier. When the session is over, it collapses neatly into its own carry bag for effortless transport and storage.
