Hi Guys, Just a quick look at my new diffuser. It has been made from a 75mm white plastic kitchen funnel and a plastic can sealer of the same diameter. The can sealer was originally purchased to keep large cans of dog food fresh after they had been opened. . . :lol: Anyway, 5mins with the dremel too...

Craig, I picked up a Rosco Diffusion Kit awhile back (cost about $30 U.S.; they make you buy from a local retailer...). The kit contains 24 letter size pieces of diffusion material, which I have been playing around with, looking for the best option for my needs. I'm far from exhausting all possibil...

I'm enjoying this discussion, but will admit I am a little perplexed that there's been no mention of the many various polyester Lee and Rosco products that specifically made to diffuse light. Certainly tougher than paper towels and tissue, nice clean color, and not very expensive. If you have acces...

Hi Rik, As you know (??) it's summer here in Oz and the sun is blazing, so no need for the Kleenex box at the moment. I will break it out of storage and try some out as new diffuser material. I have some nice 'aloe vera' scented ones, so they should be good for my hands as well. . . . :roll: :lol: M...

Hi Dave, Good find, I have also added it to my favorites and I will have a good read of it tomorrow when I have nothing else to do. My boys are visiting their mother on the other side of the country, so it will be quiet around here for x-mas. . . Merry christmas to all my good friends at photomacrog...
