The translucent reflector is used to diffuse light, creating a softer, more even illumination. It is typically placed between the light source and the subject.

• Softening Direct Sunlight: Position the translucent reflector between your subject and the sun to diffuse harsh sunlight, reducing strong highlights and deep shadows.
• Diffusing Artificial Light: When using studio strobes or continuous lights, place the reflector in front of the light source to soften its output, creating a more flattering light for portraits or product photography.
• Reducing Specular Highlights: The diffused light helps to minimize harsh reflections on shiny surfaces.

Experiment with the distance between the light source, the reflector, and the subject to achieve the desired level of diffusion and light spread.
