Low-tech bounce flash trick!

[Cadenza]

Hello, compact folks.

Playing with my G3 today, I discovered a low tech
bounce flash trick that could be potentially useful
to those of you who can't use an external flash.
Since I don't have a compact model, could any of
you try and see if this trick works on your cameras?
Thanks!

Here is the description of my bounce flash trick in
the other forum:

I couldn't get this to work. Maybe my flash isn't strong enough. How do you hold the disk?
