I received two parcels today containing reflectors for my (in transit / yet to arrive) Elinchrom strobes.

One reflector (16cm / 90°) is a genuine Elinchrom one, the other two (21cm) may be, I suspect, products of the Yum-Cha Tin Works Company.

Either way, none of them came in a manufacturers box.

What do you find the best way to store your reflectors when they are not fitted to your strobes ?

Also, your grids, how do you store those ?

Thanks,

Austen.


I just want to take nice photographs of people.

I was thinkin' more of something with individual compartments / slots for each reflector and not have them banging around together in a big bag or suitcase sort of thing .....

you might be able to get those foam inlets and cut out sections to fit your gear.
