 It's Brilliant! (get it?) July 17, 2010
M. Gonzalez (Albuquerque, NM USA)
As a full time professional photographer who loves to get the most out of her very little money, I had to try this diffuser, right?
This thing is amazing! I bought it for my 430ex flash after my beloved Opteka SB-1 diffuser fell apart. The SB-1 still works, what with only needing to be a piece of material, but I have to sit down and fasten it on since the velcro loops broke (really soon after buying it!).
This Sto-Fen diffuser fits like a glove! I was worried about that, because I do a lot of moving around when I shoot and I didn't want something flimsy that could fall off. This baby is snug!
It does a lovely job with the diffusing, as well! I would say it does as good a job as my old Opteka, and I adore that thing. I use flash in just about every shot. Even camping in broad daylight. It's beautiful!
I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a STEAL on a diffuser. The Opteka is great before it falls apart, but even then you have to loop the velcro strap through and yada yada. This hard plastic does not wrinkle like the Opteka (so I can just toss it in the bag), it takes up very little space in my bag(which makes up for it not being collapsible), and it takes absolutely no time to set up/ attach. Just pop it on and off!
For the price range, I'd buy this again and again if I needed to. And I probably would never need to unless I lost it or did something really silly that was entirely my fault. I can't see how this thing could...stop working perfectly!

This is a good product, compact, doesnt break and quite reasonable priced. I recommend and actually bought this as a present b/c I already had one.
Simple product, it works. May 14, 2010

It's a very simple product, there isn't much to go wrong here. It fits perfectly on my canon 430EX-II flash and diffuses well.

Works well for softening the lighting on the subject. I found no trouble with the fit on the flash.
amazing on 430 ex II February 18, 2010

Got this a while back, indoor pics have never looked better. I rarely have to adjust output.
I agree about the fit--it could be better. But it doesn't fall off too often, and if you have the flash pointed up at the ceiling (where it typically should be absent a large wall to bounce off of) gravity shouldn't take over.
