Reflector panel GlareOne Bounce Board 5-in-1 80 cm – GlareOne portable lighting modifier

GlareOne Bounce Board 5-in-1 80 cm is a portable reflector panel and lighting modifier designed for photographers and videographers who need quick, reliable control of ambient and artificial light. The 80 cm disc combines five interchangeable surfaces—typically white, silver, gold, black and translucent—allowing you to shape, soften, bounce or block light to achieve desired contrast and color temperature adjustments on portraits, products and location shoots.

Advantages

The design offers compact portability and quick setup, folding down for easy transport and storage. Multiple reflector surfaces in a single disc provide flexibility: white for neutral fill, silver for increased contrast and specular highlights, gold for warm color correction, black for flagging and subtracting light, and translucent for diffusion. The lightweight construction makes handheld or mounted use practical for studio and on-location work.

Suitable for

• Portrait photography to soften shadows and add catchlights
• Product and e-commerce photography for controlled fill and highlight shaping
• Outdoor and on-location shoots where portable light control is required
• Video interviews and run-and-gun filming to reduce harsh lighting and even out skin tones

Key specifications

• Configuration: 5-in-1 multi-surface disc (white, silver, gold, black, translucent)

How to use

Unfold the reflector and select the surface that matches your lighting goal. Position the reflector to bounce light into shadow areas, to flag unwanted spill, or to diffuse direct light by placing the translucent panel between the light source and the subject. For subtle fill, use the white surface at a shallow angle; for stronger highlights or contrast, use the silver side. The gold surface warms light when shooting in cool ambient conditions. When using outdoors, hold the reflector or mount it on a stand and angle it relative to the sun to control catchlights and shadow softness.

Usage recommendations

Use a dedicated reflector holder or sandbag when mounting on light stands to prevent tipping. Keep the surfaces clean and avoid folding the colored side inward against dirty faces to maintain consistent reflectivity. Combine the translucent panel with a softbox or on its own for gentle diffusion in close-up portraits or product shots.
