I put an ebay diffuser on my two flashguns 420EX and 430EX then took these two photos....
Which do you think had the diffuser?

I just don't get it. What is the point of shooting this image? Is there something scientific you are demonstrating? Robert

The point is - can you even tell an ebay plant-pot diffuser was ever used? Rhys

No because they're equally harsh direct-flash crappy. Did you lose Digital Photo Professional (DPP)? Get it here

I didn't figure that given their size, they would make any difference. The face is no bigger than the flash lens. The only thing they do is to reduce light output and spill some around the top, bottom and sides. Rhys

At the risk of speaking for Robert, I don't think he was referring to the subject. I think he was asking what was the point of the "test". Please disregard all opinions in this post
