I don't have a lot of experience with various diffusers, but I like the results from using it at a recent event. Worked well for reducing annoying bright flashes at people and still gave plenty of soft light. Giving it 4 stars because it is difficult to attach with the tight elastic. I'll probably get someone with sewing skills to convert the tight elastic bottom to Velcro to make it easier. The fabric materials make it easy to fold & lay on top of my camera bag. For the price and light weight, I was pleased with the product.

Works better than expected, however, getting the softbox onto the flash head was quite tricky. There is a trick to doing it, but I found it counterintuitive.

Works well softening the light wen shooting straight on the subject. I like the fact that you can take the Velcroed translucent material out of the way to bounce the flash on a wall or ceiling.

Does what it's supposed to do, a bit difficult to get on and off though. Came free with a flash that I purchased, so a great little bonus.

Tried using once it we as a little hard to attach and the light output falls off too much in my opinion.

I would recommend this diffuser if it fits your flash. Seems really tight and I cant imagine it fitting anything larger than a flashpoint flash

No instructions with package. Very difficult to get on. Have not had the opportunity to try it out consistently to see if it works as described.

The perfect defuser at an amazing price.

The opening is too small to fit on my Speedlight. Very disappointing.

In ordered this product to use on my SB600 flash on my D850, it diffuses the light really well and works great for a soft fill, couldn’t think of anything better to spend 8 bucks on.

This works quite well for my needs. I've been using it for macro shots and general indoor photography. I'm using it on a Bolt-VC 310 compact flash which is smaller than regular flash units. It fits fine but I wish it were a bit easier/quicker to slip on. It's so small and lightweight ,,, great to just throw into your gear bag.

The Softbox is to small to fit over a Flashpoint Zoom Li-ion R2 TTL On-Camera Flash Speedlight For Nikon. I felt like if I stretched it it would rip. I also tried to put the Softbox on a Nikon SB 800. The Softbox was also to small to go over the the SB 800. I had to return the 2 Softboxs that I bought.

I can not use it. It will not fit over my SB900 flash

The softbox diffuser is the perfect size for my mini Godox flash. The elastic is very tight and needs both hands to put it on. But that is probably due to it being new. I could tell the difference with and without the diffuser when I was testing it in my room. However, I could not tell the difference during an evening outing. But to be honest, I only had one day to get familiar with using an external flash and softbox.

I like the simple nature of SoftBox diffuser and that I can put it in my pocket and use it only when I need to. Nice and compact.

Toss it in your pack and go. Light weight, low cost accessory that works well for those situations when you need to diffuse the light and for whatever reason, can't tote along the big stuff. Great for macro in the wild.

This diffuser works well on my Pentax AF-540FGZ flash. The only drawback is that the opening is tight so it is a bit of a struggle to put it on my flash unit. Other than that, it nicely softens the light. I shoot inside a building with high ceilings so bouncing the flash off the ceiling won't work.

This diffuser works like a charm perched on my Pentax 540fgz ii flash. Recommended!

I use it on my little Fujifilm EF-X20 flash that I have mounted on an extension arm attached to my XT2 tripod socket which I use for macro photography. Also fits on my Flashpoint Zoom flash. So I just bought another one for the Flashpoint. I have the first one dedicated to my macro outfit.

Construction is appropriate for the price (frayed fabric edges). Unfortunately, the opening on my copy is too small to allow use on most modern on-camera or speedlite flash. When I tried it on an old Vivitar with a small enough head, it was still very hard to attach due to VERY stiff elastic.

Got it just in time for a sunset wedding shoot - it worked a treat , however when working in really dark environment - it is best off

This is a good inexpensive diffuser. It will do the job without the big name price.

This has been used for a second light in a small portrait set up. Also pets and small product shots. It is pretty small and folds flat so it is easy to keep handy. It is a nice item to have.

Works good best close up 8-9 feet, center camera on subject, not for bounce ceiling effects.

INCREDIBLE RESULTS FOR [$]
By Jersey M.
This is the best [$]I have ever spent on a photographic product. It does everything a diffuser should at a remarkable price. This simple to use unit eliminates any harsh shadows on portraits and produces consistent results. The fact it lays flat in my bag is another plus. I am ordering another today just in case they raise the price.
Great Bang for the Buck
By Mildoba
