Gary Fong is excellent at innovating products for professional photographers use. The Lightsphere Collapsible Pro Kit is an great example. The kit is sturdy yet lightweight. It is easy to pack the entire kit which allows a photographer to be prepared for many different types of lighting situations. I've had the kit for about a week now and everything tests out well. The gels are so simple to use and they stay exactly where you want them. The Power Snoot is a remarkable yet simple device that is great at focusing the light which allows for a more concentrated beam delivered farther than it would under normal circumstances. I really like the collapsible kit where you can take the inverted white diffuser and turn it upside down. This allows for a larger diffusion surface and increases the height of the flash from the lens. When in a lower ceiling environment, this makes a huge difference in the softness and completeness of the light. Thank you, Mr. Fong for another amazing product!

Just as advertised. A bit pricey, but for what you get, it's totally worth it. I do weddings, portraits, and other occasions on the side, and this is the perfectly portable flash solution I was looking for. I have a Canon Speedlite 320ex, and products work well with this flash. Everything fits, and works as advertised.

Using the lightsphere is really nice and easy, all you have to do is to raise the EV compensation a little bit to get the correct exposure, but it really does eliminate those harsh direct lights from your flash unit! Speaking of the powersnoot, it's just genuine and simple! The grid on it just works like when you use your tap, and the water comes out in a straight and focused way, but this time it's the light which is being focused on a short area on your subject.

I am really satisfied with these products and I would recommend them to any casual or serious photographers!
