okokok lets get serious. I was only able to do some head shots.. it did work pretty well, especially considering that I bounced the flash of the wall behind the camera. I had the full cap on..

wow i really like the way that diffuses the light, i'll have to get a flash and then get on.

haha I like the second one. I was thinking about getting one of them, but wasn't sure how well they worked. Seems to be pretty good though.

That third one is a good photo.

Think I may have to add one of these to my shopping list soon

Hi Bruce -

When I got my LSII, I did what you did in the 1st picture . . . stare at it as I pressed the shutter. . . . man i was seeing spots and had a headache for the rest of the nighthttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_redface.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_redface.gif Well worth it though, 'cause it's been giving me awesome photos!!!

[mr.photoguy]

Sweet, I saw a few others with it, and figured it couldn't hurt to try it out. I have to admit, after taking all of those photo's of myself,(most in my gallery under memememememe), I really like the results. I didn't even point at me. I actually bounced the flash back off the wall behind the camera. My ceelings aren't to high, maybe 7 -8 feet. so I had the cap on.
I will try some images without the cap one day also.

Dang that thing is umm ....

Ugly comes to mind... :lol:

I really like the last two of your original posts. Nice cropping and lighting. Not sure about the eyes on each side of the camera/flash in the last picture but it is an interesting perspective. I've added one of these units to my list, it seems to do a very nice job and at a reasonable price. Now to find a job to pay for it all...........

[mr.photoguy]

hehe... thanks Titus213.. Actually with those images, I didn't crop them. I just resized them. The camera was within arms reach, as I don't have a remote switch yet, and I didn't feal like constantly getting up. so what I saw was what I got.
