Photoflex On-Camera XTC II Flash Accessories

Photoflex On-Camera XTC II Flash Accessories 

DESCRIPTION

Softens the light from your flash and at the same time gives you a broader area of coverage. The result is more natural-looking photos, no unsightly red eyes on people or pets, and simply better pictures. The V-shaped cut-away at the front steers clear of the sensor and will not interfere with automatic light metering. This mini softbox attaches easily to your flash with a Velcro® strip.

Strength:

None really, if it where stolen or got lost i would not buy another.

Weakness:

Velcro strips
Have to pump it up with air, it could leak at some stage
poor diffusion

Intitially i felt dissappointed at first on opening the product, the front window is less diffused than the picture on photoflex website, the velcro attachment is a total disaster if you have a flash gun that adjusts for wide normal and tele lenses because the side velcro strips cannot be attached properly, a tight elastic set up would have worked better.
If the front aperture window was the same or similar material to a white umbrella i think better diffusion would occur,It certainally diffuses the light better that a straight flash, but i was hoping for more of a soft box effect but not so, I am thinking of modifying the front somehow to create more of a soft box.
However it is better than any self made diffuser i have created and it does spread the light with only one stop loss at 3 meters.
