When it comes to lighting setups, more control is always better than less control. If you’re looking to fine-tune your diffusion levels for your scenes, these new Adjustable Diffusion Panels from Godox should be nice options to consider, along with some helpful motorized control and different light reduction modes.
Currently only available in Asia, Africa, Oceania, South America, and Europe, these new Godox AD21 / AD32 / AD33 Adjustable Diffusion Panel should be able to drum up some popularity before they’re hopefully released in the United States here soon.
Regardless, let’s check out these new Adjustable Diffusion Panels from Godox and go over how to get started with adjusting your diffusion levels for your lighting setups and scenes.
Godox AD21 / AD32 / AD33 Adjustable Diffusion Panels
Designed to allow gaffers and cinematographers the ability to fine-tune diffusion levels with a simple flick of a control stick, these new Godox AD21 / AD32 / AD33 Adjustable Diffusion Panels will also offer the ability to switch between a Level Mode and a Light Reduction Mode.
Within these modes, users will be able to adjust settings instantly with the goal of achieving the perfect light softness with ease. The result is quite similar to how electronic variable ND filters can adjust diffusion levels in-camera.
The Godox Adjustable Diffusion Panels are set to come in three different sizes and will support five frequency levels to help ensure the video footage you record is flicker-free with compatibility up to 300fps.
Easy to Store and Travel
What appears to be the best aspects of these Godox Adjustable Diffusion Panels are their versatility and ease of use. The Godox Adjustable Diffusion Panels will be fully collapsible, which means that shooters will be able to store them and travel with them quite easily.
The panels themselves feature easily attachable and removable Velcro, so they should be easy to work with on set as well. As far as performance goes, the Level Mode mentioned above should enable 0-100% visualized quick adjustment, and the Light Reduction mode will be able to display an EV range from -0.1 to -2.0.
