Nanlite 47" Lantern Softbox – 270° Omni-Directional Soft Light with Bowens Mount
Bring cinematic-quality lighting to your productions with the Nanlite 47" Lantern Softbox, a professional omnidirectional light modifier designed to deliver beautifully diffused 270° illumination. Perfect for overhead or ambient lighting setups, this large lantern softbox fills your scene with natural, even light that enhances every frame — ideal for interviews, portraits, video shoots, and film sets.
Expansive 270° Light Spread
With its wide, spherical design, the Nanlite 47" Lantern Softbox creates a broad, wraparound light that evenly fills large spaces. Whether used to soften shadows or to increase ambient light, this modifier delivers consistent illumination, mimicking the natural glow of sunlight or the warm ambiance of interior lighting.
Perfect for restaurant scenes, group shots, or event videography, the lantern design ensures your subjects are lit evenly from all directions.
Precision Light Control with Adjustable Skirt
Included with the Lantern is a two-piece detachable fabric skirt, allowing you to precisely control spill and shape the light according to your creative needs. Use it to direct light downward for focused setups, or open it fully for diffused, 360° soft illumination.
This flexibility makes it a must-have modifier for cinematographers, portrait photographers, and lighting designers seeking professional-grade control.
