Wish I could give you a true comparison based on personal experiences, but I've only used the Mola and no other beauty dishes.

The Mola that I have is the 33" and I've had it about 3 years. I use it for about 25% of my work with most of my other shots using the 5' and 7' PhotoFlex Octodomes.

The Mola provides me with a bit of a harder, more specular light that gives a nice shine to the model's skin, similar to what you might see in an FHM/Maxim type shot. I like the look a lot on glamour-type shots.

Best regards,
John
