The OctaPlus family of Lightbanks, available at Lightbulb Rentals, is designed to produce soft, beautifully diffused light with smooth, rounded highlights. Featuring a soft silver interior, the OctaPlus Lightbanks utilize an innovative graduated baffle in models like the OctaPlus 5 and OctaPlus 57 to ensure highly efficient and even light distribution.

Extensive testing has shown minimal light falloff, with only a 0.2 f-stop difference between the center and outer edges of the OctaPlus 57.
