Softbox for Lantern GlareOne 65 PRO by GlareOne — kit with diffuser skirt

The Softbox for Lantern GlareOne 65 PRO by GlareOne — kit with diffuser skirt is an accessory designed to convert the GlareOne 65 PRO lantern-style modifier into a wide-angle soft light source. Supplied as a kit that includes a removable diffuser skirt, the softbox produces uniform, wraparound illumination useful for portraits, product photography and video. It attaches to the GlareOne 65 PRO to soften shadows and reduce specular highlights while maintaining the lantern’s even 360° distribution.

Advantages

This kit delivers consistent, soft light with a broadly diffused output that reduces contrast and creates gentle falloff. The removable diffuser skirt allows quick changes between fuller diffusion and a slightly more directional lantern glow, providing flexibility on set. The softbox is sized and shaped to match the optical characteristics of the GlareOne 65 PRO, ensuring reliable attachment and predictable light quality without altering color balance or introducing visible hotspots.

Suitable for

• Portraits and headshots requiring soft, even facial illumination
• Product photography where diffuse, shadow-free lighting is needed
• Video interviews and talking-head setups with wraparound light
• Small studio scenarios and tabletop shoots that benefit from broad soft light

Key specifications

• Designed for use with the GlareOne 65 PRO lantern-style modifier
• Includes a removable diffuser skirt for adjustable diffusion
• Lantern-style softbox shape for near-omnidirectional, wide-angle light distribution
• Constructed to preserve color neutrality and minimize hotspots
• Quick-mount attachment compatible with the host lantern’s frame

How to use

Attach the softbox to the GlareOne 65 PRO lantern following the host modifier’s mounting points so the fabric and frame sit securely. Install or remove the diffuser skirt depending on the desired amount of diffusion: fit the skirt for maximum softening and wraparound light, or omit it when a slightly more directional lantern effect is required. Position the lantern at an appropriate distance from the subject to control shadow softness and coverage; closer placement increases softness and broader coverage, while greater distance narrows the effective illuminated area.

Usage recommendations

For portrait work, place the softbox slightly above eye level to create natural catchlights and even facial modeling. When shooting products or small sets, use the full diffuser skirt to minimize reflections and ensure uniform lighting across surfaces. Combine with flags or grids on surrounding lights if you need to limit spill or shape the lantern’s wide output.
