Bubble Blower, Flesh fly and a Butterfly

Haha, Andres, don't you dare change your diffusion. It's perfect as it is .

Denis, Ya know I have a nice bracket and a lovely mini ball head with hot shoe for the flash. Just need an off camera cord and a smaller diffuser. The 7D has wireless flash activation but it pops up the on board flash.. not a good thing.

I've been saying for about 2 years I need to build a DIY diffuser... still not done it haha.

Thanks for all the kind comments everyone

why not? if your flash has slave capability (ttl or optical), put it on the bracket and use the popup flash to activate it...

if using as optical slave just set flash exposure compensation to -MAX EV possible

Thanks for the info. I'll have a look at that. That's essentially what I want to do, prevent the popup flash from firing during the image shot. I'd tried playing around with it but it was firing the two flashes. Wasn't sure what I had been doing wrong. Now I think I do

glad to help
