The latter is quantifiable and can be measured with the right tools, but light quality (such as the softness, spread and fall-off) is extremely difficult to measure objectively. There is one note that I would like to make before we start this review, which is that light quality is very different from light quantity. We thank Godox for providing us with a sample unit to try out. I’ll be testing the 120 cm variant, which is the P128 model. It comes in four different sizes and starts at US$1119. This modifier is the Godox Parabolic Light Focusing System. The light modifier that I will be reviewing in this article is not like the others this one could be considered ‘high tech’. Most modifiers rely on diffusion, scattering the light in multiple directions in order to get a pleasant light. ![]() It is true that most of them are all variations of the same shape and principle, but not all. On the other hand, it is not right to dismiss all light modifiers as ‘low tech’. It is not surprising, because in general we see that in the last few years, light sources have changed significantly, while light modifiers do not really feature any new innovations. However, when we look at websites that cover lighting related news, such as Lighting Rumours, by far most attention is spent on light sources. I’d rather have a little bit of good light than a lot of bad light. Without a doubt, a light modifier plays a bigger role in the final photo than a light source.
