Softbox Fabric Panel Lastolite Skylite Large 2 x 2 m Silver/White by Lastolite

Lastolite Skylite Large fabric panel is a 2 x 2 m reversible silver/white diffuser and reflector designed to modify studio and location lighting. The lightweight, tensioned fabric provides a consistent surface for shaping flash or continuous light and is intended to be mounted to compatible frames, softboxes or support systems. The silver side increases contrast and specular reflection for stronger highlights, while the white side delivers soft, even diffusion to reduce shadows and create uniform illumination across portrait, product and still-life subjects.

Advantages

The panel offers a large, uniform surface area for reliable light shaping and a reversible design that gives both reflective and diffusive control without changing accessories. Its durable fabric maintains tension to avoid wrinkles and uneven light falloff, and the thin, foldable construction makes it practical to transport between studio and location. The neutral white side provides broad diffusion suitable for softening light, while the silver side boosts contrast and apparent output when a more directional, specular quality is required.

Suitable for

• Portrait and headshot photography where soft, even illumination is required
• Product and e-commerce shoots to control highlights and shadow detail
• Still-life setups needing uniform light across flat or shaped surfaces
• On-location shoots that require portable, quick-to-mount light modifiers
• Use with flash or continuous lighting systems for controlled contrast

Key specifications

• Panel dimensions: 2 x 2 metres
• Reversible surfaces: silver and white
• Material: tensioned fabric suitable for diffusion and reflection
• Designed for mounting to compatible frames, softboxes or support systems
• Lightweight and foldable for transport and storage

How to use

Attach the panel to a compatible frame or softbox following the frame manufacturer’s instructions so the fabric is evenly tensioned. Position the silver side toward the light source when increased contrast and specular highlights are desired, or position the white side toward the light source to achieve soft, even diffusion. Adjust distance and angle relative to the subject to control shadow softness and highlight intensity. Use with studio strobes, speedlights or continuous lamps as required by the shoot.

Usage recommendations

For consistent, wrinkle-free results ensure the fabric is fully tensioned when mounted. When transporting, fold carefully along natural seams and store in protective bag to preserve surface condition. Test both sides in-camera to determine the desired balance between contrast and softness for a particular scene.
