5 out of 5 stars A must have item   August 9, 2008
Perfect diffuser for your 430 EX flash, and a must-have in every kit with that flash.


3 out of 5 stars It's not great, but it's portable   August 9, 2008

A friend of mine convinced me I needed this. He does weddings and uses this on his Nikon SB-800 which is attached to his D300. He likes it for it's small footprint in his camera bag and it's ability to disperse flash in an acceptable fashion.
I am far more discriminating and far more pickey how my flash performs.
I found this diffuser did not evenly distribute light throughout the room.
I did a few tests, comparing it to my Gary Fong Whale Tail. The Omni-Bounce ditributed the light poorly in comparison and weakened the flash output far more than the whale tail did.
I tried several angles of bounced light with no attachment. The Omni-bounce was better than nothing at all for inside photos.
I use a Canon 30D and a Canon 580 EX II.

I recommend it only in that it is better than nothing for indoor photography, it takes up very little room in your bag and it's inexpensive.



5 out of 5 stars Great buy   August 1, 2008
I bought the Sto-Fen OMEW Omni-Bounce Diffuser when I bought the Canon 430EX Speedlite for my Canon 40D last week. I have tried it out in all lighting conditions and have to say its a works great. Most flash's I have seen on other peoples cameras has Velcro to hold their diffuser on top of the flash. After reading all reviews on here and on other diffuser products I knew this was the one to get. It fits perfectly, is not lose and will not fall off! I took it off several times and the shape always stayed the same. I had read that some diffusers after time lose their shape so this was a real factor in my decision to buy it. It came as a great bundle with the 430EX Speedlight so if you are going to buy the flash might as well spend 10.00 extra and get the diffuser with it.


4 out of 5 stars Helps but dont expect completely different light   July 21, 2008
This little plastic box sticks well on the 430 EX and doesnt fall if one pushes it well (it doesnt need much force for that to happen). I was shooting with a wide angle lens and this box helped me with the extra room I needed to fill, it even works when the integrated diffuser plastic of the lens is pulled and put into place, although it is a little bit forced to fit.

For the price its very convenient, I highly recommend...
