LumiQuest Cinch Strap Review

LumiQuest Cinch Strap

Like others, I didn't want to attach sticky velcro pads to my nice, new Nikon SB600 flashgun. The cinch strap does an admirable job of attaching the diffusion hood to the flash, but it doubles the assembly time. The soft rubber triangular pattern on the underside of the strap grips the flash body very well, but doesn't lock it completely solid. It does get displaced slightly after a few mins of manhandling the camera. If you put the flash on a tripod, this is not a concern, but if you're hand-holding the camera and moving about a lot, it might be.
I have bitten the bullet, stopped using the cinch strap and just stuck the 4 pieces of velcro to the flashgun now. Much quicker to set up and holds the diffuser more rigidly.

The LumiQuest Cinch Strap enables the photographer to attach LumiQuest accessories without installing self-adhesive loop to their flash. In addition, wrap-around velcro attaches LumiQuest Accessories for a more secure attachment. This is particularly useful with the Big Bounce and our larger SoftBoxes.

Opteka CL-2 Deluxe Clinch Band for Diffusers, Softboxes, and Light Modifiers Review

Opteka CL-2 Deluxe Clinch Band for Diffusers, Softboxes, and Light Modifiers

I have to say that I was more than a bit skeptical that this product would work. I already owned an Opteka SB-1 mini diffuser; it came with velcro strips that you have to tape to your flash. While that worked well enough, it was kind of ugly having to have velcro stuck to your flash.
OK, I suppose it's function over beauty and I suppose a pro photographer wouldn't care what the flash looked like as long as it worked. But photography is my hobby, and I like to take care of the expensive stuff I have.
This strap simply wraps around the flash with the velcro side pointed outwards, and the diffuser attaches to the velcro. On the inner surface, it has a rubber-like texture that I suppose helps keep the strap in place, but its not nearly as "rubbery" as I would have thought.
At any rate, the strap holds the diffuser on pretty well, and I could moderately tug on the diffuser without really moving it around. Sure, if I tug on it hard enough, it's going to fall off, but I don't think it will under normal use.
I do notice that a similar product, model CL-1, is also available and that it looks to have less of the rubberized material on the underside. Not sure what the difference is, and the Opteka website doesn't really specify any of the attributes of one model vs. the other.
The good thing is that when I removed the sticky velcro that originally came with the diffuser, there was no residue left on the flash. So you may wish to simply stick with the original velcro.

The Puffer diffuser is exactly as described. I own a Nikon D40 and it was a little tight fitting it onto the hotshoe mount, but with a little finesse it slipped on fine. It diffuses nicely. The cleaning kit is fine, too.

LumiQuest ProMax Mini SoftBox Review

I've owned LumiQuest's Mini SoftBox for years and it has been a winner for me. I shoot commercially both in-studio and on-location, and the Mini Softbox is terrific for removing the harsh glare of a normal dedicated external flash. The purpose of a softbox is to spread out the light so you don't end up with "hot spots", areas of white glare on people's skin which is caused by flash units. The Mini Softbox velcro's onto the flash unit, which doesn't bother me at all since I use it so much. Portraiture has much more pleasing lighting, and it's priceless for doing walk-around candids in an office or at a gathering when spontaneous action is needed.
The Mini Softbox is small and doesn't get in the way. It's durable and has lasted me for 6 years. I'm now buying a new one as I finally wore this one out. Pay no attention to the review saying it wasn't for professionals. I wouldn't do a location shoot without it. Works with any external flash unit and comes with the velcro strips to attach it. The velcro doesn't get in the way and it's almost unnoticeable when it's on the flash unit. Functionality is the main thing, so I highly recommend it.

The Mini SoftBox enlarges and diffuses the light with the flash in the direct flash position. Unobtrusive and low profile, the Mini SoftBox is ideal for press and other fast-moving situations.Application: To soften shadows and eliminate unpleasant red eye.

I am a professional wedding photographer who has worked with different types of diffusers over the years. This one is by far my favorite - it is durable and versatile. It may not look as fancy as some of the others out there, but it gets the job done!

LumiQuest Soft Screen Review

Looking at the reviews some love this and some find it so-so. I think the real difference in experience depends on your camera.
The Nikon D80 built-in flash juts forward more than the flash on the camera shown. The result is that the flash is pushed right up against the diffuser screen. If the screen was further from the flash, I am sure it would work better.
As it is, this does not really work well for my Nikon D80.
However, for my older 35mm SLR, a Nikon N70, this works well because there is sufficient distance between the flash and the screen.
Bottom line: If you have a Nikon D80, this will not help much.

Diffuse your pop up flash and prevent red eye. Quick and convenient to put on & take off. This is the answer to most on camera flash problems. Light loss is about 2/3 of a stop

Three different color Flash Diffuser Set included(Orange, blue andWhite). Creates a perfect distribution of the light. The pop up flash diffuser is a tool really easy to use and it's very effective with a pop-up flash camera. Aids in softening shadows and "red eye" effect.

I am a full time working photographer primarily shooting event photography (no weddings), portraits, the arts, etc. I bought this on a whim for use on my Nikon SB-300. I do have a variety of diffusers, but this one really is excellent for a very even spread of light in darker situations when I don't want to drag out all the gear or if I am doing an outside portrait and need fill flash with out the obvious color problems encountered.
Excellent use indoors and is so lightweight, it does not get in they way at all. It is constructed as is per the price point, but is easy to store in a cam bag. Will probably order a couple more for backup.
Highly recommended. Performs as advertised.
