Customer Reviews:
Diffuser Works as advertised

The vendor shipped it as advertised. Once it arrived, it worked as outlined on the web site.

It works
A piece of plastic that does its job, diffuses light. I keep it on my SB-600 at all times.

Good product
works great to soften photos of people. just be sure to adjust your f-stop to compensate for the some of the flash brightness being reduced

Helpful product, yes it is a cheap piece of plastic
I read 1-star reviews here and will agree this product is simply a frosted piece of plastic that happens to fit on your SB-600. I made the mistake of thinking the SB-600 has a built in bounce card, so I cannot compare this product to a bounce card yet. If you are creative, you could probably make something similar to this with scraps of packaging that other products came in and rubber bands.

However, having spent the money for this product, and comparing the results to the built in camera flash bare, as well as the SB-600 bare, I think it helps diffuse the light better than the built in SB-600 diffuser. So far, in near pictures (subject closer than 15 feet and with a ceiling) I prefer using this product and bouncing it off the ceiling straight up or maybe 65 deg. For farther subjects or wide open out door evening pictures, straight on with this diffuser helps minimize harshness compared to bare, straight flash.

If you are creative, make yourself something at home. If not, then it is a useful tool to have but I removed a star because I too think it could be priced a little lower. A 4 GB SDHC card from here on amazon is cheaper than this product and probably a better deal for $10-$15.
