Mr. Surapon,

Sometimes I think you should quit your day job and become a full-time inventor. You might become a billionaire. ;D

a great DIY, thank you for sharing, i sold my macro lens, but when i get another one i think i will try this method, as for diffusers, i like the concept of Gary Fong Lightsphere, but i am not sure if i should get it, so to see how it would perform i used this

 

[meywd]

as for the results, here is a small test:

1) without bounced of ceiling.
2) with at same angle.

Nice one! Imagine the reflexes that thing produces in the eyes of a Model! That would look awesome! Of course the model will also be blind after the shoot but, man, that would make some crazy portraits!
