I received my long awaited Christmas presents yesterday ... A Lightsphere II Cloud and a Puffer ... man are those things awesome!!

The LSII gives amazing all round lighting, and with the puffer on the pop-up flash it actually becomes a usable flash.

I am very impressed!

I keep a strip of masking tape on the bottom of the camera - makes the pop up usable and is always on hand. :o :D

Still want to get a Lightsphere though but the wallet has taken a beating with the new lens and new 400D body :(

Eish, couldn't they fix the LCD?

The nice thing about the puffer is that it slides into the hot shoe, so when the need arrives for the pop up flash, it pops up behind the puffer and you are good to go immediately.

Fair enough but the rest of the time you're going to look like Geordi La Forge is squatting on it. :eek: :p
 
I use a lumni quest. It big and bulky but provides and very nice diffusion with the option of warming up the subject. Can make a pale lady look like a nicely tanned one easily.(my ps skills are not quite there yet) Only on when I need it. Does make you look quite serious though!

One day I'll get a diffuser :o

On the bright side of things my camera body arrives tomorrow so I can actually take some photos again.
