Opalite

Japanese: オパライト
Opalite
A trademark of the beauty dish, a lighting device for photography. It is a combination of two reflectors, one large and one small. The large reflector is umbrella-shaped with a hole in the center, and the small reflector blocks direct light from the center. When a flash is fired through the hole, the small reflector reflects all the light, which is then reflected again by the large reflector to illuminate the subject.
