I currently use a Lumiquest pocket bouncer with the 420EX and was wondering if the GF diffuser would do a better job. Based on his photo samples.. it seems like it would.

Anybody have his unit and can share their experiences with it?
Thanks.

I have the LSPJ unit -pliable plastic. I am so far happy with it, however the recommended '45deg' setting of the flash head isn't a 'click' setting on the 420ex (choices are vertical, 60deg and 90deg) so the weight of the unit on the flash head makes it flop forward to 90 unless held. :evil: Once (first outing, at a commissioned shoot!!!) the unit fell off and rolled across the floor. Teething troubles and that is sorted. Depending on the situation, some shots have been underexposed, but I am putting that down to my learning curve, so don't base your decision on that. I am not posting examples, but I am sure others can.
See this thread for plenty of posts!
