After purchasing a good camera and lens, many photographers feel the need to purchase additional light sources. That is - flares. Because on-camera flash even the most modern SLR cameras has very serious disadvantages: does not allow to adjust the direction and intensity of the light does not give scope for creativity. External flash is good in all respects. They are compact, the nature of light and temperature similar to solar light, allow to adjust the power. Choosing the first outbreak, you should pay attention to models with a swivel head. And, of course, you'll need a flash diffuser for the flash. It allows you to control the light distribution. Note that the larger area has a working surface of the lens, the softer the light. For ease of use you need a mobile design that does not occupy much space and will be easy to unpack. Consider how you can make a diffuser for the flash with his hands.

Source materials

You need fine stationery A4 folder made of flexible and dense white plastic, and the textile Velcro tape with a width of about two centimeters with a sticky layer. You can buy it in a shop that sells curtains or cornices. You will need a total of 25-30 cm And, of course, will need to have scissors, ruler, pencil, paper.

Diffuser “lopushok”

This diffuser for the flash is very simple. On a sheet of paper is drawn a line similar to the following sizes: narrow side - 65mm wide side – 160 mm, height-125 mm. If desired size you can change (depending on flash model and your requirements). From the bottom to “lopushok" glued side of the Velcro with hooks. Soft side Velcro attached to the flash on the perimeter from all sides. This will allow you to mount a homemade flash diffuser in any position. Note that before attaching the Velcro it is necessary to degrease the surface with alcohol. Aggressive solvents for this purpose should be avoided as they can ruin plastic. Despite the outward simplicity, such a diffuser for the flash gives a lot of room for creativity. You will be able to bend the design and place it in different positions. This will allow you to direct the light not only in the ceiling, but forward, to the side, at an angle (not fearing to hard light and “kill” black and white face painting-models).
