Like "I just tape a business card on my flash and cover it with a pair of old panty hose and it didn't cost nary a penny." So yes, this is a simple piece of plastic. We are paying 15 whole dollars for a piece of plastic, ok?The second group includes me, where I don't bother pulling my pants up over my belly anymore and I whip out the $15 like I am made of money. And it works GREAT. I expected to use it when ceiling height or color was not ideal, or for portrait shots. During my sophisticated experiments (sitting in pajamas and bath robe taking pictures of the crap on my kitchen table) I was surprised that the lighting with the diffuser (flash set at the first click like Sto-Fen suggests) was superior to using the...

First, like the diffusion adapter that comes with the SB800, it's a bit bulky and takes excess space. Secondly, it costs. Thirdly, you can lose it.Much easier way to bounce and diffuse an SB400: tape a white business card to the top of the flash so it hangs off the front. Bend the card at the middle upward to a 45 degree angle. Tilt the flash tube upward 90 degrees so it dumps the light into this mini white card. Shoot the photo. You can leave the card on the flash, fold it up and stick the whole thing in the SB400's cute little carrying case. Zero cost. Replace it when it wears out. By the way, the SB400 in a room with an 8-10' white ceiling works really well by simply rotating the flash tube up 90 degrees. By design, the exact amount of light emits from the edge of the SB400 flash when it's pointed upward. This gives a perfect amount of fill light and the very important eye highlight. You...

I'm still pretty new at using my Nikon D40x 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens, and I appreciate anything that helps to make my pictures better.It might be possible to save the cost of a diffuser gadget like this by rigging up something out of thin plastic, paper clips, rubber bands and (for all I know) chewing gum. But I don't know how, and anyway when I'm taking pictures I usually don't have a lot of time to fiddle around with my camera first. This diffuser is small and easy to carry, and snaps on and off the Nikon SB-400 AF... Read more |
