Not what I thought

Got this diffuser in a package deal with my 430ex. Will not fit all the way on and is very difficult to put on. Not the same quality as Sto-fen.

Fong is better

I got this in a bundle deal and I'm glad I didn't pay for it. I use Fong's sphere and I think it works better then this.

Works OK

Fits my 430exII perfectly, but overall it is so-so at effectively diffusing the flash. It still tends to be too "hot" unless you're a good distance away from your subject...

Fits great

Fits perfectly over the flash unit. Nice and snug. It doesn't soften the light as much as I'd like but that's what a mini softbox us for. If I buy a mini softbox I'll probably buy another one of these and cut the front out. I'd then attach the softbox to the modified diffuser for easy install onmy speed light and removal. No Velcro on my expensive speed light!

Snug Fit and Works Well

It's a diffuser and works as it should. It's a snug and firm fit on the 430EX II.

Has its Uses

This came with my Flash, I didn't think I would use it, but I found it can have its uses. It seems that it does disperse the light more evenly when used although it reduces the amount of light cast upon the subject, which is to be expected. Overall in my opinion its a great item to have in your bag.

An absolute must

This is an absolute must-purchase alongside the 430EXII or 580EXII. Softens an otherwise harsh output. The only negative I have is if you leave it on the flash, the unit no longer fits into its case. But a small grievance for an otherwise must-have for anyone using a Canon shoe-mount flash.

Nice product upgrade !!!

I bought this same flash diffuser a few years ago for my 430ex and it didn't fit that tight, I bought another 430exII and this same diffuser and found out they have made some big inprovments, It fits tight, it's alot better than the old version. A flash diffuser in mainly used indoors, it keeps the flash from blowing out the white, watch a news meeting, every flash has one on it and the the photos turn out great.

Pointless

I wouldn't get this if it was not in a kit. The 430ex II has a built-in wide angle lens and also allows you to bounce the flash. In the end no need for it.

lost it

I got it for my wife camera and when she went for a one day trip she lost it since the fit on the flash was loose. Otherwise I would say it was a good product
