Softbox
A softbox is a foldable light trough , that is, a surface light that is used for evenly illuminating motifs. A hard box , however, is a light tank with solid sides. Light troughs are used when very even, flat light is required in photography, e.g. B. when shooting reflective curved surfaces such as eyeglass lenses. Light troughs are also used in portrait photography for uniform illumination.
