Cheap ebay flash diffusers

I bought one of these a while ago and it's a lot better than £4 would imply. Seems to do a decent job of providing coverage for an 18mm lens from a flash only intended to go to 35mm wide, judging by a few test shots.

It also attaches with a velcro strap, rather than having to stick bits of velcro to your spiffy new flashgun.

£4 is a bargain. These are much more expensive.

I've seen a few DIY things which were similar, but at £4 it isn't really worth the time and effort to make one.

It also makes my K-m and flash look rather professional, even if it does take up a fair bit of space when deployed!

without knowing the exact brand you are refering to I could not possibly have a opinion to express

The paper tissue I draped over the in built flask on my K100D this evening seemed to work better than I expected. It didn't look professional at all, but I don't think the moth I was photographing noticed.
