Beetle Diffuser FAQ

Everything you need to know about gear, compatibility, and shipping.
Models & Features
What is the difference between Pro & Lite models?

The Pro Model: Designed for precision. It varies the lighting angle precisely using a unique latch strap mechanism. It features a more powerful LED for faster focus assistance and allows for shooting macro videos with diffused light.


The Lite Model: Simple and quick to set up. The diffusion quality is as good as the Pro. You can vary the lighting angle by adjusting the cord panel. It can utilize built-in focus assist LEDs found on flashes like the Godox 860v3, V1, and others.

There is an option to buy the Lite with a mini LED for focus assist if your flash doesn't have one.
What does the Pro-Lite Combo include?
You will receive the full Pro diffuser set, plus the Lite model body and bands.

The diffusion panel from the Pro can be swapped and used with the Beetle Lite body. This allows you to switch to the Lite variant when you need a lighter, faster setup.

Is the Beetle Diffuser easy to setup and store?
Yes. All our flash diffusers are designed to be quick to set up and fold completely flat for easy storage.

Each diffuser comes with an assembly video which you can refer to when you first receive the product.
