Photography Question 

Linda Finstad
 

external flash attachments


I recently watched Jim Miotke "digital photography unleashed" it was excellant by the way.
But he clipped on a really handy dandy little cap thin onto his speedlight.
It bounced the light into the subject.
I was wondering if anyone wnows where I could buy one and what it is called.

thanx Linda Finstad

  LInda, there are a number of these flash accessories around - I didn't take that course so I don't know which he actually used.

But, you could investigate the units from Sto-Fen, Gary Fong, and Lumiquest, to name a few.Personally, I prefer the Fong Photojournalist over the others, but you should probably check into them all.

  Greetings Linda: It sounds like a Sto-Fen, but why don't you just drop Jim an e-mail and ask. I'm sure he'd be glad to tell you which one it is.

  Hi - Thanks guys for your advice, I went out and bought a lumiquest pocket bouncer. I think this is what Jim used in the video.
I cant wait to go and try it out.
Unfortunatly we got a dump of snow yesterday and my last 2 outdoor (fall shoots) cancelled.
Oh well I guess thats life in Canada
