I purchased the large 24" x 25' roll and used it on the very first shoot after I got it to create a flag to wrap around one of my off-camera strobes to prevent light from spilling onto the background. I worked perfectly and I was able to easily form it into the exact dimensions I needed and attach it to the flash head with simple gaffer's tape. It wasn't damaged by this and so afterward, I was able to fold it up and put it back into my lighting kit for use next time. This 24" x 25' roll will probably last me a lifetime. I wouldn't have needed this roll if I hadn't lost the last one (which had lasted 30+ years) to a house fire.

This stuff works GREAT, but boy it's expensive for what it is. We always have some in our studio for lighting.

Just when you think you have everything for a shoot, this is a godsend if there ever was one. Perfect for blocking light from windows, adding makeshift barn doors, deflection and hoods. So many uses for this stuff and it doesn't reflect light. I am still using my black foam boards, but with this and the size that it is, it is perfect for a lot of situations.

I did not use this product for what it was designed for. I was building a sculpture that needed to have a piece of clothing to defy gravity, and this product worked out perfectly. In fact, it turned out better than I had first imagined. So I would highly recommend this product to any sculptor or maquette builder. True, you do get a large role, but you have plenty more for your next project. I would also recommend it for any stop motion animators because it is a good way to animate clay in a fold out way.

This stuff is great for making snoots or barn doors for oddly shaped lights. For example, for 10.5" clamp lights, I cut out a really long piece, wrap it around the reflector, clothes pinned it, and used it to control the light.I also use this on my CN-160 LED light. The foil is some what durable (wish it was a couple of millimeters thicker), so I just use the same piece, fold it up a few times until it's smaller, and wrap it around the CN-160.I bought the 24" instead of the 12" because I knew I was going to use them on clamp lights. Even with the foil wrapped around the socket portion of the clamp light, I find I still have a lot of snoot/barndoor to manipulate (sometimes too much). I suggest if you are only using this foil for flashes.You will form holes if you keep folding/unfolding a piece of foil. The holes will form at the creases you make, but they are small. To avoid any frayed ends, I went ahead and used duct tape (or gaffers) to reinforce the edges by folding the tape over the edges. This way, there's no chance of a frayed end turning into a massive tear.Some other uses for this foil: covering up small windows, substituting for a flag, and wrapping it around your lens for a quick lens shade.It's a nifty product, comes in handy on shoots, and I highly recommend it!
