Looking at buying a Diffuser. Pentax AF360

A quick question. Something like a sto-fen omni-bounce is allot more expensive than a cheap copy from China. Is there any real difference in how the product works ?

Thanks,
Tim

I have, or rather had, the Stofen. It wasn't a terribly snug fit and is now lost. There isn't much to it at all and it might be worth looking at the cheaper alternatives, not that the Stofen is expensive.

I still use white styrofoam cups, dollar store drink bottles and when I'm really fancy, I have a white measuring cup with a curved mirror glued to the bottom, usually use those with the 10-17 mm fisheye.

other than that, white card and rubber band.

I'm cheap.

ok you have answered my question thanks. Thought there could be some cleaver physics within the higher priced items
