In today’s episode, we have a look at a new soft box from Kamerar called the D-FUSE Trapezoid. This is a larger, round version of their pop-up soft box for 1’ x 1’ LED light panels for video and photography lighting. This affordable soft box is easy to pack due to its light weight and small size when stored. It doesn’t create super, super, super soft light, but it definitely softens the edge to shadows and reduces the contrast between shadows and highlights making a nice image for headshots, talking head, or interview video.
