ADJUSTABLE REFLECTOR The reflector is adjustable to a deep or shallow fold for a 1 1/4 stop variable to help balance with existing light. On a digital camera you can see if the flash is too strong on the subject and adjust the reflector to help balance it with the existing light. The straight up position also allows you to tilt the flash for ceiling bounce light indoors.
