The RapiDome by Photoflex is a multipurpose Speedlight Modifier for Location and Studio Portrait Photography. It is perfect for on-location photography because it is lightweight and portable and it also works great in a studio setting for photographers who are shooting with speedlights.
And for me that's a big selling point. As speedlight technology is advancing I find myself using them more and more both in studio and on location. Since I'm primarily a portrait photographer I like working with softboxes and beauty dishes. This RapiDome is a Beauty Dish and Softbox in one lightweight unit - which means less to pack and carry on location.
The RapiDome is a compact 25.5" octodome shaped umbrella style system that allows you to quickly open and close the unit, while its shallow ten and a half inch depth let's you work comfortably in tight spaces. With a bright silver interior that will help you maximize the light output from your speedlight, the RapiDome's primary design is that of a portable, collapsible Beauty Dish. The reversible deflector dish is designed to reduce the center hotspot and produce even light output from edge-to-edge.
Constructed of solid aluminum the RapiDome is lightweight yet it maintains durability. It is worth mentioning that the RapiDome comes with a three year warranty from Photoflex.
The cold shoe bracket is height-adjustable and rotatable which allows it to be compatible with nearly all shoe mounted flashes. You won't need a speedring to use this unit. It also has a built-in adjustable light stand mount that fits stands up to five eighths of an inch.
Photoflex didn't stop there with the design and function of the RapiDome. The RapiDome ships with a removable diffusion panel which can be used to soften the RapiDomes light output with or without the deflector dish in place. You can gain even more control of your speedlight with the eggcrate grid for more dramatic portrait photography.
In this video you will see shots done on location with the RapiDome being used as a softbox and in the studio with it being used as a beauty dish in front of Savage Seamless backgrounds.
