Love my roundflash, this is a test shot on my poor wife and she gave me here best funny crosseyed face for this test shot. Easy to use, great light and I was shooting at 5.6 with a 600 exrt at about 5 feet, probably could get 7.1 out of it.

nice photo!! :D

The Canon Ring Flash would be interesting to use as fill, but it's to proprietary in it's implementation for my taste

Wow the roundflash looks better than the orbis... How well does it work with a short lens like 50mm.....any vignetting?

Vignetting was the question that came to my mind while watching the DIY vids on the 1st page. I'm very interested in this type of modifier, leaning toward the Orbis, or a DIY.

almost bought the orbis today.. decided against it last minute because they said it was mainly for "glamour" type shots....not really suited for wedding/reception/enga​gements..

What do you guys think?

I am going with a 2 light setup... one will be set up on a stand/umbrella/snoot for ceiling bounce or rim light.....and the 2nd will either be on-camera using a flashbender+diffusion panel or hand-held....or on a boom-arm/monopod...........​..which could be a ring-flash.

My roundflash is in transit. Probably another 1-1/2 weeks. (...drums fingers on table...)
