Pictures taken in 2006 to show various flash modifiers (44 pictures)

In order to make the shadows softer, you want to make the apperent light source bigger. One technique is bouncing where you bounce the light off of something else, such as the ceiling, and the area being bounced off of becomes the light source. The other technique is diffusion where material is placed in front of the flash to break up the light.

One thing that these pictures will not show is how the eye sockets look after the flash modifier is used. Often times when doing a pure ceiling bounce, peoples eyes don't have sparkle. In some cases, people's eyes can be like raccoon eyes, where the eyebrows or a hat can block light being bounced from the ceiling. This is where combination modifiers like the Lumiquest 80-20 or the Flip-it come in, where they allow most light to go straight up to the ceiling, and bounce some fill light straight to the target. I would expect red-eye to set in when using these if the subject is far enough away from the camera/flash when using these methods.

The room I shot this in has a fairly low ceiling. The only editing I did on these photos is using ImageMagick to reduce the size of the pictures for publication on the web. I shot all of the pictures with +2 sharpening and at SHQ image quality.

If you go with the Lumiquest 80-20, you might want to look at the Promax accessory kit, which gives you the option of making it into a bouncer, and to provide more diffusion.

I don't have an umbrella with a black cover, but if you are going to bounce the light into an umbrella, you probably should spend a few extra dollars, and get an umbrella with a removable black cover. This will direct the light towards the target, instead of going behind the umbrella.
