Question: Is this diffuser fit my Pentax AF-360(2-1/2X1-5/8)?
Document: I mainly take pictures of people at events such as receptions. This diffuser works better than the small box shapped caps that fit on top of the flash. It effectively softens the light in close shots. However, when there is a normal 8-12 foot ceiling, I find using the white card and bouncing the flash off the ceiling works better. So I end up using this diffuser less than 5% of the time.
This is a double edged sword however as the sphere II can't fit on various sized speedlites, so if you need it to fit across various sizes, you will have to overlook the fit issue.3) Light loss is greater on the collapsable compared to the lightsphere II. I estimate it to be around 1-2 stops of light, most likely due to the cloudy material vs. clear on the lightsphere II.
I have a basic &#34;fit over the strobe lens&#34; diffuser, but the Gary Fong unit produces a much more pleasing and less directional light. I think it' a bit overpriced and that's why it doesn't get 5 stars from me.
Alright, so the earlier generation Gary Fong diffuser was brilliant. It was easy to put on my flash (Canon 580 EX Mark II) and the pictures looked nice and warm. Because of my good experiences with a friend's diffuser, I decided to buy my own, and bought this collapsible diffuser. Big mistake.1. It is impossible to put on the flash without wrestling with it for a while.2. It does not collapse as shown in Gary Fong's video (on his website).
It's not by any means going to stick to an object or your hands, but I noticed lint sticking to its surfaces having stored it in my cargo pocket. Nothing a quick rinse in a water faucet wouldn't fix, but lint never found its way onto my lightsphere II when carried in the same "linty" pocket.5) I paid $39.99 for the lightsphere II 2 years ago.
I'll give it 2 stars instead of 1 just in case I'm just not &#34;getting it&#34; in terms of intended use, but if you already know how to bounce flash off walls/ceilings, and utilize the bounce card properly, save your money. (I'm an event photographer)
Not a solution, but one way to overcome its size.With the release of the lightsphere collapsable, I wondered if this could retire my 2 year old lightsphere II. Was is it time for an upgrade? Yes and no. Read on for my impressions.First, the bad:1) The older lightsphere II is actually smaller than the collapsible in its expanded form.
I love that it collapses!! I only wish that there was some way to collapse the whole thing as 1 piece...it's a little bit of a hassle to have 2 pieces and the dome is a little cumbersome...or it would be great if when it collapsed, the pieces could snap together...Otherwise, the photos I'm taking with it are great! The light is even and well dispersed.I use a Canon 7D with a 580ex II flash
It is so wonderful with it collapsing down to just 1" thick, then the half dome is about as thick, fits nicely in a zippered side pocket where as the older version there was just no way it fit anywhere convenient.Only other note is be for certain you will get way too many looks, comments and questions so just be prepared to field all of those. I like the end result, but personally could do without it being on my camera for asthetics, oh well.
The design is great and the fit is great on my 580 EX. However, these small flashes aren't very powerful to begin with and I lost 2 F stops with the LightSphere. I wanted to use it for outdoor portraits in the sun for which I find I do not have enough power with the loss of 2 stops. I like the weight and portability. Amazon had the best price I have seen on this product.
