Absolutely, they excell at that, and the quality of the light can be very good. I have, however, come to prefer reflected light from an umbrella. I suspect it has something to do with the umbrella being a 3 dimensional light source, as opposed to the flat lighting from a soft box. Ribless umbrellas are nicer still, since the structure of the reflector isn't as obvious in the catchlights. Somewhere around the house, I have both a 60" umbrella and a 60" Moonlight softbox. I've never done a direct comparison. I should do that at some point. William Robb
