Alien Bees - Beauty Dish

Anyone here own a Alien Bees Beauty Dish?

I was hoping to get some samples of this item since I am pretty intrested in what I read about them.

Hi Umesh,

Within the last week or so I recall someone posting that they had gotten the AB Beauty dish and we asked for photos but I'm not sure if they were ever posted and I don't recall seeing a review or followup post. Perhaps a 'beauty dish' search will find it.

EDIT: Found it.. https://photography-on-the.net …857&highlight=b​eauty+dish. See post #12
There is one sample and you might want to PM the poster (charlesu) of the image. He owns it and apparently knows how to get good results with it.

I got one. I've only had my beauty dish for less than a week and only have shot with my ab's once (temproary setup in my living room to make sure things worked)... so I haven't done a "real" shoot with it yet but here is what I got.

Honestly.. I could've gotten the same effects (same type of shot) using my small strobes... But I will experiement with it more once I do a real shoot on location & have some time.

Here's some more... Once agian nto a real shoot just messing around, guess'ing and checking. Those aren't catchlights in the eyes.
