The 72" Photoflex Umbrella Diffusion Cover 72"from Photoflex Umbrella Diffusion Cover 72"is a softlight accessory that turns a reflective, bounce-type 72" Photoflex or similar umbrella into a light source comparable to a softbox. Useful for portrait, fashion or beauty work, the one-stop diffuser slips easily over the open side of the umbrella. It has an opening for the flash head and works on white or silver umbrellas, but for best results and higher output we recommend using silver.

A: Hi Rebecca. I use profoto D1 and B1 strobes versus continuous light. So, I'm not sure the heat rating of this umbrella.
