Godox UB-165S 165cm zilveren diepe paraboolparaplu

Portrait photographers in the studio and on location will appreciate the Godox UB-165S deep parabolic umbrella for shaping light with precision. This 165cm silver umbrella delivers a soft yet punchy quality of light, with beautiful specular highlights that add dimension to portraits and product shots. Its deep design focuses the beam more than a standard umbrella, giving you directional control without losing the gentle wrap-around effect that parabolic umbrellas are known for.

Why choose it

The UB-165S combines the convenience of an umbrella with the light control of a softbox. Its parabolic shape creates a smooth, even light falloff and produces an attractive catchlight in the subject's eyes. Whether you're shooting across an octabox or comparing it to a shoot-through umbrella, this modifier stands out for its ability to deliver contrast with gentleness—a combination that's hard to achieve with other modifiers.

Ideal use cases

• Studio portraiture, where controlled soft light is essential
• Fashion and beauty shoots that benefit from specular accents
• Product photography needing directional yet soft illumination
• On-location shoots where portability is a priority

Good to know

The umbrella's silver interior maximizes light output and efficiency, while the black exterior prevents light from spilling backwards, ensuring that all light is directed forward. The fiberglass rods provide a robust structure that withstands frequent use, and the included carrying bag makes transportation easy. It is compatible with any standard umbrella mount, so you can use it with your existing light stands and strobes.
