Black & Silver Umbrella is designed so that the light is pointed away from your subject. The light is reflected towards your subject. This produces a broad soft light source. This also gives a specular quality. The umbrella features a highly reflective silver-coloured surface. This results in maximum light efficiency. The black outer-surface prevents light from leaking through the surface. This also absorbs any unwanted light from being reflected.
Translucent White Umbrella provides diffused lighting around a bright central burst. The lighting and effect can be varied by changing the distance from flash speedlite (or studio strobe) to umbrella.
