SmallRig RA-D120 Parabolic Softbox

SmallRig RA-D120 is a large 120 cm parabolic softbox designed for portrait, interview, beauty, product and film lighting setups that need a broad but still directional soft source. Its deep 16-sided shape creates a more focused character than a shallow rectangular softbox while still producing smooth shadow transitions and flattering wraparound light. The modifier uses a standard Bowens S Mount, making it suitable for a wide range of compatible COB and point-source fixtures.

120 cm parabolic design for soft but directional light

With an open diameter of approximately 118.9 cm and a depth of around 70.9 cm, the RA-D120 provides a large emitting surface while retaining a deep parabolic profile. This combination is useful when you want softer light than a reflector or bare source but still need more direction and contrast than a very shallow softbox or lantern would provide. It works especially well as a key or beauty light for portraits, interviews and fashion, and can also create controlled highlights on products.

Internal and external diffusion for flexible softness

The softbox uses both an internal diffusion baffle and an external front diffuser. They can be used together for a smoother, more even result or adjusted depending on how much output and contrast you want to preserve. The highly reflective silver interior helps direct more of the fixture’s output toward the front of the modifier, improving efficiency while maintaining the soft character created by the large surface.

45° honeycomb grid for better spill control

A fabric honeycomb grid can be attached to the front of the softbox to narrow the beam to approximately 45°. This helps prevent diffused light from spreading across backgrounds, walls or adjacent parts of the set. The grid is particularly useful in interviews and multi-light setups where the source needs to remain soft but more precisely contained around the subject.

Quick-release construction for faster setup

SmallRig uses a click-and-lock quick-release design that allows the softbox to be opened and collapsed without inserting individual rods into the speed ring each time. The stainless-steel support ribs sit on the exterior of the modifier, helping keep the interior clear while maintaining the parabolic shape. The outer shell is made from Oxford-style fabric designed to resist light leakage and provide better durability for location work.
