No More Harsh Flash

I bought the Gary Fong C1 flash diffuser and I love it. I can now take better informal portrait photography or wedding photography. This diffuser really makes the flash softer and it's great when using it indoor.

I love the results it produces

I like the product and it really diffuses the flash well. It can be hard to secure to my Nikon SB-800.

Group photo? No problem!

I bought this after a recommendation from a fellow wedding shooter. I needed to get in and get out of a group shot situation (which isn't my favorite thing to do) very quickly and didn't have time to set up lights. This system saved my cookies. I shot a family portrait with 30 + people in it and the light (with the chrome booster) was perfect! I highly recommend this for indoor group shots when time is a factor. Dance floor shots also were very easy.

This is a flexible, Opaque Vinyl diffuser with an internal snap on dome. Designed to fit a select group of flashes (see list of flashes below)
The inside of the Lightsphere is completely textured to make the light dispersion even more "soft" than it would be otherwise!

The new cloud colored Lightsphere provides the warmest softest light possible from your on-camera flash Studio quality light, that you can carry in your gear bag, makes the Cloud Lightsphere the perfect diffuser for portrait photographers and wedding photojournalists. This soft flattering light is the same light you are accustomed to finding in your studio when using a softbox, Calumet panel or large umbrella. If you shoot outside of your studio - you will love the NEW Cloud Lightsphere.

The inverted dome allows you to softly diffuseyou will love the NEW Cloud soft source without creating flare on the front of your lens.

The C1 Lightsphere II fits the following flashes

• Canon 420Ex
• Nikon SB-50Dx,SB-80Dx, SB-600, SB-800
• Pentax 330FTZ, AF500FTZ
• Quantaray 6500A
• Sigma 420, 430
• Sunpak 4000AF, 383
• Achiever 260 thru 828 - TZ2
• Digslave DFS-1
• Vivitar 273, 2800, 550/560D,

ChromeDome
The ChromeDome Increases light output dramatically while still keeping the diffusion properties. You will have up to double the power and efficiency, but the look will be identical. The ChromeDome was made for the Lightsphere Cloud Model only - it does not work effectively with the clear model.

There is an open top to allow clear light to hit the ceiling. A chrome-plated kicker panel blows light forward, while the inverted bowl blasts more light into the bowl, brightening the bowl.

Amberdome
Instantly warms up your images in coll situations for example Outdoors at dusk or early morning Outdoors in Open Shade (set camera to auto-white balance) Interiors with tungsten lighting (set camera WB to "tungsten" setting) Shooting sunsets with the sun at your subject's back.
