Question of bounce flash in open area

[william_jordan2]

<p>IF you are in an open space and want the same effect as bouncing off a wall, Sunbounce has developed a system where a card is held by a bracket off camera and your on-camera flash bounces off it as if it were a wall. http://www.sunbounce.com/products/bounce-wall <br>

Naturally, this comes at a price: $124 for the bracket and one wall card, with each additional card costing $30-40. On their own blog, they show a 99 cent way to get the same effect using a coat hanger, but you couldn't really use that at an event or with a client.<br>

Being a cheapskate, I rigged up my own presentable version for about 40 bucks, using a Stroboframe 350, which you may already own, as a base. Check this entry on my blog for details:<br>
