Can't live without!, December 4, 2010
This review is from: Sto-Fen Omni-Bounce for the Sunpak 455, 4500DX, 522, 544 and 555 Flashes. (Electronics)
Flash units provide a way to have light on-tap whenever needed to make quality images. One problem is the light can be rather harsh. If a strobe is used straight out of the box, the images do not look very natural and the light is very sharp.
By softening the light, shadows are reduced, glare is toned down, and more natural images result. This attachment is one of the least expensive ways to improve your flash photography in one step - just snap it on!
It's so easy that it still amazes me that flash units don't automatically come with this "must-have" attachment.
Most flashes today are automatic so there is no manual adjustment necessary. It does reduce the distance your flash will reach but for shooting pictures of people, it is unlikely this will greatly affect your meaningful shooting distance.
It's made of rugged plastic with no moving parts so you can just put it in your bag with the rest of your gear and not worry about it getting damaged.
