MaxiSoft 30 50 70 90 L110 Octagon
For your Hedler light unit you have bought a MaxiSoft folding reflector, which has a soft light characteristic. We thank you for your trust in our
product and we would like to please you, to read the following technical, usage and safety information carefully.
Codes in brackets are order numbers.
HEDLER MaxiSoft
The HEDLER MaxiSoft range contains folding reflectors from 30 x 30cm up to 90 x 90cm, the Longbox 110 x 45cm and the Octagon 100. They
are progressively constructed with rounded corners; have a Velcro™ fastener attachable diffusor with optional, the complete diffuser covering
filter gels; are light weight and own a tough material. If folded a small-size and a carrying bag make transportation easy; inside the studio and on-
location a fast assemble and disassemble is assured. Because of the new design, a highly homogeneous spread light beam is one characteristic of
each model of the MaxiSoft range, according to practical needs we offer different sizes for all Hedler light units of the Professional- and Compact-
Model range. New HEDLER Honeycombs, that come along with a carrying and protection bag, are optional available for the models MaxiSoft
30, 50, 70, 90, L110 and Octagon 100.
The availability of the different MaxiSoft sizes is the result of practical needs. The more soft light characteristic of a softbox compared with other
reflectors can be additionally adjusted through the chosen size according to the objects size and by changing the distance between light unit and
object. As a thumb-rule: The bigger the light beam emitting surface of the MaxiSoft is and the closer it is positioned to the object, the softer the
light characteristic will be.
Uni-Adapt System
Because of the Uni-Adapt System it is possible to attach all MaxiSoft folding reflectors to nearly every Hedler light unit. For older Hedler light
units there is the Uni-Adapter <7000> available, for the HEDLER C-lights C 3, C 10, C 12 and C 12 silent we are offering the HEDLER
Speedring C as an adaptor for attaching the folding reflectors to the Hedler C-light units. The main advantages of the Uni-Adapt System are
the totally free positioning of the folding reflector over a complete 360° circle and additionally the capability of fast changing between different
reflectors, which lets you fast and easily react according to the changing needs of lighting characteristics.
Important: Maximum of usable Lighting Power
Every single MaxiSoft model has a maximum of heat resistance which is defined by technical reasons and size, because of this it is very important
to take special care of the following instructions and information: MaxiSoft 30 x 30cm is usable up to 300 Watts; MaxiSoft 50 x 50cm is usable
up to 2000 Watts; MaxiSoft 70 x 70cm, MaxiSoft 90 x 90 cm and MaxiSoft Octagon 100 are usable up to 2500 Watts; MaxiSoft L 110 x 45cm is
usable up to 2000 Watts and does not suit for the continuous silent operation mode.
Filter gels, Roundmasks and Honeycombs
Filter gels are available for all MaxiSoft Folding reflectors, they offer a homogeneous Daylight-filtering. Besides this are roundmasks available for
all square shaped MaxiSoft folding reflectors, they allow to create round light reflexes on shiny surfaces. Honeycombs are available for some
of the MaxiSoft folding reflectors, they suppress stray light and increase contrast and brilliance. Another advantage of Honeycombs is, that the
angle between light unit and camera can be a wider one, which allows greater possibilities for the positioning of the light unit. Accessories can
be attached by using Velcro™ fastener.
