FAQ

The NOVA II 1x1 shows a hard spot on walls. Will this dome help?

It spreads the panel's 35° native beam into a 95° omnidirectional dome with slightly more spill than the flat diffuser. For an even softer wash, the Heavy Frost dome opens to 100°.

How much output do I give up with the dome?

Almost none against the flat diffuser: 2,459 lux at 3 m (5,600K) with this Light Frost dome and 2,466 lux with the flat diffuser. The Heavy Frost dome reads 1,380 lux.

Which NOVA II 1x1 diffuser gives the roundest, most even source?

Aputure designs both QuickClip domes as omnidirectional modifiers. The Light Frost dome keeps the output close to the flat diffuser; the Heavy Frost dome gives the softer wash at lower output.
