Our honeycomb grids for the
7AB/R 7-inch Silver Field Reflector are available in four sizes, taking the 80º beam spread on the 7-inch reflector down to 10º (HG10), 20º (HG20), 30º (HG30) or 40º (HG40). The grids can be used in both 7AB/R and the
UMF LiteMod™ Unit Mainframe.
A single grid snaps directly into the recessed outer lip on the reflector (or mainframe). When mounting the grid, leaving the tab (with the beam width size label) sticking out allows you to use the tab to pull the grid out of the reflector when you are ready to remove it.

*** with the 11HG30 in the 11LTR reflector, the grid maintains the same beam spread, but eliminates light spill outside of the 28º pattern
Our 7-inch honeycomb grids are designed for use with the
7AB/R 7-inch Silver Field Reflector and the
UMF LiteMod™ Unit Mainframe. They may not be used with any other reflector.
With the
LiteMod™ system, the grids can be used in conjunction with gels/filters and the gel holder as well as the light-directing barndoors.
With the standard 7AB/R 7-inch reflector, the grids can also be used in conjunction with the light-directing barndoors and with gels/filters (though the UMF is required for use with the
GELH gel holders -
clips will be necessary for gel/filter use with just the reflector).
When a grid is in use, the umbrella hole is blocked and umbrellas, therefore, may not be used simultaneously.
