Impact’s PLB-300 portable LED photo booth is ideal for shooting large products, apparel,
or portraiture on location and in the studio. It’s designed to give multiple options for
creating awless images with shadowless or contrasty lighting. A softer lighting
environment is possible with the integrated diffusers. The booth is lined with reective,
textured silver fabric, and clips are included to hold backgrounds.
The included LED strips offer bright daylight-balance light. They easily attach to the frame,
and depending on where they’re placed, the LEDs can be used as key or accent lights.
The frame is composed of lightweight steel rods that are designed for quick and easy
assembly. The durable shell is constructed of heavy-duty fabric that can endure transport
and location shooting. The booth sets up in minutes and breaks down into a compact
carry case that you can take anywhere.

Instructions
Getting Started
• The height rods are designed to attach via a button lock. To
connect the H1 and H2 sections, press the button on H1, and t the
two rods together until the button pops through the hole on H2.
• It’s best to lay the shell at on the oor and
assemble the frame on top of it.
• It may be easiest to assemble the frame by laying it on its side.
Assembling the Frame
Refer to the frame assembly diagram in the Overview
above while following these steps.
1. Assemble the base of the frame by connecting D
and W rods with the corner connectors.
2. Insert the H1/H2 assemblies into the four corners of the base.
3. Place four corner connectors on top of each H1/H2
assembly, and attach them with D and W rods.

Important! The assembled frame should be straight and
even. If the frame is lopsided or uneven, you’ve used the
wrong combinations of rods. Make sure you have used the
correct combinations, and reassemble if necessary.
Completing the Booth
1. Lift the back of the shell, and extend it over the top of the frame.
Attach the touch connectors in the diffuser to secure the shell.
2. Lift each side into place, and close the zippers that extend
from the bottom rear corner to the top front corner.
3. Lift up the ap at the bottom front of the shell, and attach
it to the side panels with the touch-connect strips.
4. Fit the apparel hooks on both ends of the remaining
W rod, and attach it to the top of the frame.

Instructions
Attaching the LEDs
The LED strips can be attached to any of the booth’s
rods for the lighting your shoot requires.
Important! Both DC connectors from the same AC adapter
must be plugged into LED strips in order for LEDs to turn on.
To attach an LED strip to the booth, follow these steps:
1. Attach LED clips to both ends of the LED strip by sliding
the clips into the grooves on the underside of the
strip. Start from the inside, and slide each clip toward
the edge of the strip until it clicks into place.
2. Attach the LED strip to the frame by pressing the clip
onto the rod until it snaps into place. Slide the LED
along the rod until it’s at the desired position.

3. Run the DC power connector through the nearest
hole on the side of the booth, and insert the connector
into the power input on the LED strip.

Note: The power adapter cord may not be long
enough to reach the oor. It’s alright for the power
adapter to hang loosely at the side of the booth.
4. Plug the AC power cord into a wall outlet, and use
the adapter’s power switch to turn on the LEDs.
Using the Diffusers
The top and side panels have integrated diffusers
for a softer and less angular light.
Use the touch-connect strips on the inside of the top
and sides to cover the LEDs with the diffusers.
Attaching the Background
1. Attach the background clips to the top-rear width rod.
Use the clips to hold the background in place.
2. Tuck the end of the background into the bottom interior ap.
