Title: Takes the edge of flash shots
Review: I like natural light shots best but sometimes you really need a flash to take a shot. However, a strong external flash like a Canon 430 EX or 580EX can make taking good medium to close range shots a challenge... redeye, lots of shadows, etc.I tend to bounce flash most of the time and that helps to reduce the problems somewhat. But even with that, sometimes bounce flashing is impractical (like outside). I've often resorted to rubberbanding a tissue over the flash so I thought perhaps a diffuser would do the trick.There are lots of options out there but I like the Sto-Fen diffuser since it's simple, inexpensive and small. It does a good job of softening and spreading the light without making you look like you should be shooting a wedding.It couldn't be simpler - just slip it on and bounce the flash. The camera and flash take care of the rest.
