Godox Parabolic 68 Ture Parabolic Softbox Light Instruction Manual
Foreword
Thank you for purchasing!
The Parabolic Reflector series is designed to create better diffusing effects.
The lamp head (optional) can be directly fixed on the Parabolic Reflector
mount, or on the strobe adapter of focusing rod to make them on the same line
with the light source. With the movement of focusing rod, the angle and
intensity of the light will change accordingly.
When the lamp head (optional) collocates with the focusing rod:
As the focusing rod extends from 0 to 10 degree, the light beam narrows and
intensifies.
As the focusing rod retracts from 10 to 0 degree, the light beam widens and
weakens, with a diffusion of even lighting.
The Parabolic Reflector series has 4 products: Parabolic 68, Parabolic 88,
Parabolic 128 and Parabolic 158.
Warning
- Please gently use the handle to open or close the Parabolic Reflector to avoid accidents or damages.
- As the Parabolic Reflector is heavy, please make a reasonable assessment before directly installing lamp head (optional) to the mount of the Parabolic Reflector.
- The Parabolic Reflector is suitable for Godox H1200P or H2400P. We take no responsibility for any accident by using lights of other brands which we have not tested.
- When collocating with the focusing rod, please fix on the strobe adapter of focusing rod before attaching to the Parabolic Reflector.
Before using this product:
Please read this user manual carefully in order to ensure your safety and the
proper operation of this product. Keep for future reference.
