Gary Fong Is A Genius! The C4 Cloud Lightsphere II is a MUST HAVE!
|
I have never used an add-on light diffuser before; just the built-in, flip-down diffuser that comes with most hot shoe flash units. I always figured that using the bounce flash method was about the best I could do to subdue the harshness of the strobe light coming from the flash. After reading several rave reviews about the Gary Fong Lightsphere II Inverted Dome Flash Diffusion System, I decided to go ahead and give it a try.
I have been using the Lightsphere for a few days now and I am extremely impressed. It's sort of an ugly looking attachment to have sitting atop your flash head, and people always ask me "What the heck is that sticking up from your flash?" Well what the Lightsphere II lacks in beauty it definately makes up for in quality flash photos. It softens the light from the flash just enough. I will not go on and on about all of the different uses this diffusion system offers, but I will say that once you try it you will likely want to use it for nearly all of your flash photos.
The C4 Cloud Lightsphere II comes with the primary dome, an inverted dome cover, and a promotional DVD which gives a detailed look at the function and ease of use of this product. The DVD also shows other products designed by Gary Fong. It is a long presentation, with very amateur video and audio quality, but it is definately worth a watch. It will show you the proper way to use the Lightsphere II, and provides several examples of flash photos with and without the Lightsphere II attached. I must say my biggest complaints about this diffusion system is the size (doesn't fit into my camera bag, so I must tote it around seperately), and it is hard to fit it onto the head of my Canon 580EX flash. The entire unit is flexible, so you can stretch it over your flash head, but it can be a bit of a struggle at times, especially when you are in a hurry. I have high hopes that the unit will fit easier after repeated use. Overall I am extremely happy with the Gary Fong C4 Cloud Lightsphere II system, and I highly recommend it to anyone that is serious about taking great pictures with a SLR or digital SLR camera. |
