I have tried diffusers for my Canon 30D flash and have been disappointed. This one, I was skeptical but I love it! It really does work! Just gives a really nice soft light for such a little price. It is a little awkward on the camera, I find it slips out of the hotshoe sometimes, but it is cheap enough that I wouldn't cry if it fell. I would buy another one - definitely great for photographer enthusiasts who are building their equipment up and don't have an external flash. I actually have an external flash, but I like this better!

This product folds flat to easily store in your camera bag. Installs in 5 seconds. Great results - subject looks well-lit, with no tell-tale deep shadows and over-exposed face that the on-camera flash gives (effectively ruining many photos). Inexpensive, and a simple way to quickly and easily light your photos!

This product does work as I expected but either the design details are poorly tolerances or the manufacturing process is of poor quality. For a $36 product, it is very poor quality. The parts that snap together are very loose. While that makes disassembly a snap, I always fear that the mirror will fall off or the little stem that engages the flash shoe through a gap in the pop-up flash will disengage. Even the flash shoe attachment is somewhat loose in the flash shoe. This is a $10 product with a $36 price tag.

While it does bounce flash, it's very limited on the direction. Save the money and buy a cheep speedlite. I do give credit to the quality, it is light,very easy to put together, and small enough to toss in your camera bag.

Works great...highly recommend it. Redirects the flash, no more harsh lighting.

A cheap, but effective way to go if you are a staring photographer. It helps teach you the value of light.

product is easy to install and came in time. It doesn't do magic but it sure helps a lot distributing the light.

I don't want to overly disparage the device... but I want to complain that the before/after photo is a crock. The before does look like an image taken at 24mm (wide-ish angle) with a flash that was used that is positioned over the lens. It does results in harsh lighting with a flat face (because of a lack of shadow and it also results in some hot spots on the face (all white).But the 2nd image... it doesn't use the direct flash as the main lighting source, but it appears that it is using either the ambient light from the right of the subject for a bulk of the lighting. So that's fine... because it is basically saying that the side lighting combined with a little overhead lighting result in that image... but a better example is not having the side lighting which is more flattering, regardless if you have the light from above .When you ONLY have lighting from above and it isn't at an angle, it results in this pseudo raccoon look because the light is blocked from the brow and eye brows so the eyes look a little more sunken and difficult to distinguish.Having said that... it light bounced directly from above is still more flattering than from directly above the lens.Here though, is where I call shenanigans. The first lens was taken at a wide angle and maybe an aperture of f/8... so there is a ton of depth of field. I'd guess the image was cropped from the original.The after image... has a depth of field of maybe 8 inches... and it looks like it was taking within the portraiture focal length range of 85-135mm. The couch and the beige whatever... are certainly blurred out.THIS MIRROR BOUNCE WILL NOT CHANGE YOUR DEPTH OF FIELD IN THIS WAY!!! Don't think... oh... that's nicer... that will change the way I will photograph my kids. No. You need a different lens to that.Is it that big of a deal... yes... yes it is. They are trying to demonstrate how the device will affect the lighting... and they are completely changing the image by using COMPLETELY different settings.
