Lately I've been incredibly focused on harder light shoots. I'd love to have the para88 due to how much contrast I'd be able to pull from it when doing portrait shoots and open it up more for when I'm on location for fashion shoots. It also comes in handy since I have a small studio space so having it over the 158 is more practical.

I actually love the punch that the P88 gives. I'm into fashion and portrait photography and recently exploring beauty photography as well. As I don't have a studio myself the P88 seems a bit more portable and still can bring plenty of versatility.

Hello Tao. I would use the 158 to get that big soft ligt probably diffused - Even though I tend to use grids more and more. I shoot products 80% of the time and often in narrow spaces - so grids help me control the spread of light. It has become so easy working on location since I switched to Godox, and now having the opportunity to get a parabolic as well - just gets even better 👍🏻

Size of parabolic reflector: Not sure yet, I was thinkting to try that out I will go with the mid-size 128 but I am doing a lot of harsher portraits so the 88 is of my interest. I would need to compare the 88 with the 128 to see which of both I would use, the 158 is a non-brainer for my fashionphotography. Grid or diffuser: I am using grids all the time and I think I also would with these parabolic reflectors. I am not sure if I would use diffusion, I would need to test the looks first. Usually I do diffuse. My kind of photoshoots: Lots of business portraits, sports potraits. I got a focus on people, very rarely I do products.

I love them both each would have there own uses, in my case it be using the parabolic p#88 as I work in a small home studio so the size would be perfect for that and then on location it small enough to pack with light stand to take with me when i am doing full fashion work. I shoot both portrait and creative fashions. If i was using this item, i can see me using both the grid for a bit of control of the light and but most of all with the number two diffurser to give that soft look of light and help with the contrast and bring out more chisel look in the face. But then using them both for great body scape shoot to carve out the subjects.

1. P88 + PF-GM adapter for my AD300 pro, would be perfect fit for on location work. P158 for studio work, for sure. 2. Grid for additional contrast? Yes, please. Diffusers will convert it to a more traditional softbox look, but I like contrast and crispiness that parabolic gives, so no diffusion I think. 3.

I'm into portrait and boudoir photography and I would go for the bigger version - Godox Parabolic Focusing System #P158 Kit over the #P88 (although it would be ideal to own both ;) ). The diverse light characteristics that this modifier allows to achieve, thanks to its design and the possible use of different attachments (grid, diffusers) it would make a better choice for my purposes. I can use the grid or flag some of the light, in case of a need for tight portraits with limitem light area, while for lighting a full body scene the #P158 Kit would give more possibilities than the #P88 kit. I can already visualize some moody boudoir or regular full body portrait photoshoot with gridded #P158 as well as I can see some crisp images without any attachments. I would surely use the diffusers for some softer skin effect, but if I were to choose only one set, then my personal choice would be: #P158 + grid :)

I have been a long time GODOX user with many of your video lights. I would elect to use the P88 and depending on the situation would need either a grid or diffusion. Instead of using it for photography alone, I would use this setup for beauty lighting in video work paired with either the VL150 or VL300 (which I use regularly). I love your products and will continue to use them in my productions.

I would probably use a size 128 because it seems more versatile to me. Diffuser or grid? That's the question. Maybe just using zoom would be enough. It would be interesting to see a comparison of the portrait and the whole character at minimum zoom, maximum zoom, with diffuser and grid side by side. I photograph mostly glamour portraits and nudes. More directional light would be more useful for nude photography, but it would be worth a try. I'd also be interested in a comparison of what effect zoom has on light intensity loss. When placing the light at the focal point of the dish, the light loss should be minimal.

Aries, thanks for presenting this video and with close-up comparisons - very helpful. I would use the 68 (ordered) for head and shoulder shots and on-the-go location shooting and the 128 (used it) for 3/4 to full body shots or where I need very soft light - possibly with diffusion. I think the combination of two lights, as you have demonstrated, hits the sweet spot for overall utility. I would tend to use the grid to control the spill of light and give a bit more bite to my images. The majority of my shooting would be for portraits.

In hard (inner) position the light is hard and straight enough for the most type of pictures wich i wanna shoot. Only time when i use a grid is when i build a mix with 3 lights, 70cm white beauty dish with grid for the contrast in face in 45 ° by 45° angle, straight above the dish i use a giant white umbrelle with diffusor to fill from above and a giant umbrella behind me to fill the front and the background espacially with colored backgrounds.

The 88 should be more suitable for headshots to half body shots, and the 158 is more suitable for full body shots, as well as location is considered, for example, studio or on the move. The decision has to come from photos' requirements and settings, it will be differ from case to case. Same as the grid and diffuser, both of them will be needed for different case of photoshoots. For example, individual portraits will use grid more often, but for group portraits, most likely I will choose the diffuser instead.

I have another foldable focusing Godox 120cm but is too small to get the right effect for full body shots. -No grids nor diffuser on focusing parabolic. - I mainly do portrait and fashion. I use the focusing parabolic for fashion only. I am fully equipped with Godox lighting system since many years now.

If I were to choose one, I would choose the P158 Parabolic Reflector. Because it will be a very helpful thing in lighting close-up and even half to full body shots. In this kind of setup, even without using diffuser and grid, the output will surely be wonderful. I love how the shadows fall into place giving a perfect beauty look. Just like the shadows that a beauty dish gives. Right now, I love shooting portraits (fashion) with natural light and sometimes mixing it with Godox flash.
