What it does

  • Attach reflector umbrellas to standard high-powered work lamps
  • Perfect DIY solution for budget photography lighting setups
  • Works with lamps from your local home improvement store
  • Compact adapter turns everyday gear into studio lighting
  • Ideal for digicam shooters needing extra light on a budget

Transform an everyday work lamp into a studio-quality light source with this clever umbrella fastener. Designed for photographers shooting on a budget, this 3D printed mount lets you attach a reflection umbrella to any high-powered lamp from your local hardware store, no expensive studio gear required.

If your camera struggles in low light and you're tired of grainy shots, this little adapter opens up a world of possibilities. Snap it onto a standard light stand, slide in your umbrella, and suddenly you've got soft, diffused lighting that makes your subjects pop.

One heads-up: work lamps put out artificial light with a warmer color temperature, so you'll want to avoid mixing them with natural daylight in the same shot. Stick to one light source and you're golden.

What it is made of

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
