Elinchrom Rotalux Stripbox 50x130 cm is a versatile light modifier designed for photographers who need soft, controlled light with precise placement. Its elongated strip shape makes it especially useful for portraits, product photography and still life, where you want to shape the light with greater accuracy. It is particularly effective for edge lighting, also known as rim light, helping you define contours, separate the subject from the background and create clean reflections on reflective surfaces.
Like all Rotalux softboxes, it is built for fast setup and dependable use. The proven folding design allows it to open and close with the same simplicity as an umbrella, making it practical both in the studio and on location. High-quality diffusing and reflecting fabrics help deliver the smooth, even light Rotalux is known for, while the included inner and outer diffusers give you flexibility to adjust the character of the light to suit your subject and shooting style.

Designed for precise, even light
The Rotalux Stripbox 50x130 cm is designed to deliver soft and consistent light with controlled spread. Its longer strip format makes it especially useful when you want to shape light along the subject with more precision than a larger softbox allows. This makes it a strong choice for portrait photographers who want clean rim light and refined separation, as well as for product photographers who need controlled highlights and careful handling of reflections.
As with other Elinchrom light shapers, the geometry is carefully matched to Elinchrom flash heads to help produce an even and reliable light pattern. Combined with the included inner and outer diffusion cloths, this helps create the smooth light quality that Rotalux softboxes are known for.

Quick to set up, easy to bring
Rotalux softboxes are appreciated for their fast and practical setup. The folding construction allows the Stripbox 50x130 cm to be opened and closed quickly, helping reduce setup time and making it easier to move between locations or lighting setups. The included carrying bag keeps the softbox protected during transport and storage.
Adapt the light to your subject
Both an inner and an outer diffuser are included as standard, giving you flexibility in how you shape the light. Use both for the softest result, or remove one layer when you want a slightly crisper and more direct look. This makes it easy to adapt the light to different subjects, surfaces and visual styles without changing your core setup.
Expand your control with optional accessories
The Rotalux Stripbox 50x130 cm can be expanded with accessories that give you even more control over the light. The optional RotaGrid narrows the spread and makes it easier to direct the light exactly where you want it while maintaining a soft light character. This is particularly useful for portraits, accent lighting and situations where you want to draw attention to selected parts of the image while keeping the rest more subdued.
Compatible with Elinchrom Deflectors
Thanks to Elinchrom’s centered umbrella shaft design, Rotalux softboxes can also be used with the Deflector Set. Gold, silver and translucent deflectors let you modify the character of the light further by adjusting softness, contrast and colour response. They can be used together with the diffusion cloths or without them when a harder light quality is needed.

Rotalux Speedring
The Rotalux Speedring is sold separately and is designed for fast assembly, reliable mounting and smooth handling. Its lightweight construction makes the softbox easy to rotate and position during a shoot. Speedrings are available for Elinchrom and several other major flash brands, allowing the Rotalux Stripbox 50x130 cm to integrate easily into different lighting setups while retaining all of its core benefits.
