Hi Steve.I just left it on normal.I did not use the velcro,although next to duct tape my favorite product:),I secured it with a wide(ish) elastic band.It held very well.If i was close to the band member when i flashed him,i just dialed down to 1/2 to help.(I pre fired at the light meter over several situations and power modes and just remembered them when i needed.) I seemed to have fill flash problems,outdoor,with the 285hv and D1.I think,but yet to try it,it should help soften the light nicely. Well worth the $30.00 bucks. Dave
