I've been trawling the internet trying to find out where in the UK I can get one but I've had no luck. I'm not too sure about ordering from overseas.

Does anyone know where I can buy one from?

All help will be greatly apreaciated.

Thank you for the quick reply. Much appreciated.

I'm not too sure about this site. It is secure but I can't really see any terms & conditions or anything like that.

EDIT> Everything looks in order. Might as well take the plunge. I like the idea of the lightsphere. Where an omnibounce changes dimension going from portrait to landscape, the lightsphere doesn't. Looks good.

Gary Fong invented the lightsphere or as a lot of his friends call it.. "The Gary Fong Bong"

Haha! The Gary Fong Bong. Classic!

Ooh, now this has got me confused! Is this just the half dome or the halfdome and the other dome thing that can be removed? In other words, is there two parts, one for the flash unit and one that can be removed??

there is two parts, one for the flash unit and one that can be removed.. kinda like a cap



IT COMES IN TWO PARTS - the base unit and the removable super-soft half dome for low ceilings!

Oops, never noticed that. I guess I shouldn't speed read.

Thanks for your help. Just need to figure out what fit I will need! Haha! I'll do that tomorrow with a trip to my local branch of Jessops!

I've never seen it for sale anywhere except through his online store. It might be time to bite the bullet and order it from there, I got one no problems, I order loads of stuff from overseas (US mainly) and i've never had a single problem.

Oh dear...Just dicovered the Lumiquest product line. I think I'll say bye to the Lightspere and get the Lumiquest Promax System and a snoot.

Mine arrived today! It looks silly, but it sure spreads the light.

Took this outdoors at 21:15 (9.15 pm for your over the pond), but we don't get total darkness at night, so there was more daylight than you'd normally expect at that time.

Dragged hubby out on the yard to have him "model" for me... so sorry, no hot chicks to look at (although I think he's hot).
