Compact and versatile, the unique hot-shoe mounted diffuser elevates and disperses the pop-up flash in a unique and powerful way. As a bounce panel, the compact pop-up flash becomes exponentially larger, resulting in softer light on the subject, reducing the harsh side- shadows and hot-spots that pop-up flashes often create.

They're limited in how well they work -- but would buy them again for use with the flashes built into my two a6500s....recommended.

They help, but....

For the Sony Alpha APS-C that flash is notably harsh when used directly on a subject. This diffuser effectively modifies light output direction, and diffuses the light nicely. I was surprised to find the yellow diffuser (comes with yellow and white) is my preferred one for most situations. For the price, this is a decent solution. Only problem I find is shooting up close produces a harsh shadow where the diffuser itself casts the shadow. To work around it, you can try using your finger to GENTLY move the flash slightly behind the diffuser. Shooting from a distance beyond 3 or 4 feet it's not a problem.

Affordable and effective diffuser for on-board flash

This panel is an inexpensive way to soften the built in flash of the Sony A6000.
Well worth the money.
