Umbrellas: These are probably the most widely used lighting accessories and have multiple uses. Umbrellas come with a variety of reflective surfaces and include soft white, soft silver metallic, silver, and gold. Your choice of umbrella surfaces is determined by the quality of light you wouldlike to have. A soft white umbrella will produce a soft, low contrast light, with soft edged shadows. A silver umbrella will produce a hard light with more contrast and hard edged shadows. The size of the umbrella also affects the highlight/shadow relationship. A small umbrella will create a smaller spread of light creating more contrast between highlights and shadows. A larger umbrella will have less contrast between highlights and shadows.
