> how does your pop up flash diffuser look like? Selfmade or not? Hi Markus, When I use a pop-up, it is mostly in close quarter indoor people shots, when available room light is not enough. I used all kinds of stuff ranging from wrapping it with tissue paper and capping it with translucent film canister cap etc. All work much better than bare and harsh pop-up flash. I am sure, if you are serious enough, you can make a DIY stuff. What I'm thinking these days us a translucent (or opaque reflector neatly attached to the pop-up so that part of light go up ceiling and part front diffused. Right now, I am using Lumiquest's SoftScreen which is working just fine (although still a bit harsh depending on the distance). It's cheap and portable. http://www.lumiquest.com/softscreen.htm But one of these days, I will make a reflector as mentioned above.
