40-Degree Egg Crate Grid for Medium Apollo (28")
This 40-degree egg crate grid narrows the light spread from your Apollo softbox to control spill light and add directionality. It quickly attaches to the Apollo’s recessed front using the built-in hook-and-loop fastener. A grid is a popular choice for photographers and filmmakers for precise light control with limited loss of light.
Uncompromising Light Control
Create Separation and Depth
By allowing you to perfectly focus your light source on a defined area, grids are the essential accessory for your hair light or rim light. When modified with a grid and softbox, your light can illuminate your subject from behind without light spilling onto your backdrop to gain stunning dimension and depth in your portraiture.
Instant Placement
Westcott 40-degree egg crate grids easily attach to the front of your softbox with ultra-durable hook-and-loop fastener. Apollo softboxes are designed with a recessed edge, giving you the ability to use your diffusion panel and 40-degree grid simultaneously. These soft, compact grids collapse down for storage in an included carry bag.
The Science Behind a 40-Degree Grid
Grids are made up of cells that control off-axis light in 4 directions while still maintaining the soft quality you want from a large light source. By focusing light through a grid, you eliminate both light spill and lens flare simultaneously for precise illumination.
