Readers Projects - The Food Saver Omnibounce

foodsaver_omnibounce.jpgGoing along with the great show of readers projects, Simon Chung sent me a great idea for a flash diffuser.

Starting with an ordinary food bag, and adding some tinfoil and magic, Simon created an omnibounce. To learn more about the merits of bare bulb diffusers and see a different implementation of this great idea see here.

Have more ideas for wacky things to put on your flash? Hit me in the comments.

Laxative bottle as a bare-bulb diffuser?

It's not as wacky or portable as a barf bag but it works nonetheless.

Light Laxative

I don't know about wacky

I have done this with a coffee filter.

or if you want ultra hard light. cut a slit into a shiny business card.
(which BTW fits perfectly into the Vivitar 285)

oh I have 90 reflectors from industrial highbay lights. which work great for beautydishes or ring flashes. I have been slowly selling them for $10. btw they are HUGE.

I have used sunglasses as a poorman's ( or lazy mans) gels.
