I thought I would get this one out of the way before returning the the large flash bowl.
Using 3 of the foil pie containers I cobbled together a diffuser for a pop-up flash that is even more basic than the ring flash.
Total cost £0:30p. Free if you have a suitable takeaway and wash the containers.
Attatched a comparison shot that shows the degree of diffusion. No reflectors were used although I did think of 2 sheets of A4 printer paper.
A comparison of the light as reflected in the workshop door, taken from the same position, and images that show the device.
Lastly a sketch to show how it was made. Held on the camera by tape to the pop-up and a blob of bluetak on the lens.
I think between this, and the more sophisticated ringflash, we have shown just what you can do if limited by having only a pop-up and shortage of available funds for any flash kit purchase.
