Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
A dramatic, eye catching photo can mean dramatic profits. Getting a well exposed photo is extremely important. Photographers often turn to a flash to help light the scene. The problem is that flash can cause harsh reflections or glare spots or create deep shadows that distract viewers. This little, portable universal external flash diffuser will prevent those problems when using a flash. Simply put the unit over the camera's flash, point and shoot. The light will be softened and your photos will be well exposed, without the harsh glare spots.

3 out of 5 stars very flimsy   September 2, 2010
Physical Engineer (PA)
1. It blocks the AF beam of an SB-600. 2. It is very flimsy and does not mount well, even with the friction band, it's very cumbersome to strap it on. 3. It reduces light output by 2 full stops and changes the color balance to be slightly warm.

It's a good idea, but needs better construction to be usable.

I expected something a bit more robust and my flash to work in most conditions!

3 out of 5 stars I should have bought the plastic slip on diffuser.   August 20, 2010

Does what it's supposed to do. Just bulky and awkward. I liked the smaller diffuser better.


5 out of 5 stars Easy   August 18, 2010

I like the strap, I can be used on any flash unit and the light distribution is nice. It can break down to a small size and easy to travel.


3 out of 5 stars Very Cheaply made.   August 12, 2010
Henry Biddle (Philadelphia, PA, US)
Before I even had a chance to try out the item, the holes you are suppose to put the strap on came right off. After having to staple them back on (because you know I bought it, I kinda want to use it) the thing kept falling off... and its being used on the flash that is pictured...

So what the hell? The thing falls apart almost right away and doesn't even stay on. Opteka seems to be a very cheap company, and I will NOT be shopping with them again.
