Great flash diffuser! I was just about to purchase the Gary Fong LightSphere, but noticed the WhaleTail on Fong's website - and it's less expensive than the LightSphere. I've only just started using the WhaleTail but am amazed so far at the results. I've used it for portraits, group shots, pets and inanimate objects.Bouncing light off almost anything in a room's a piece of cake. The colored filters work well, too. You should definitely experiment with it - it's very flexible. I'm using it with a Nikon SB800/D200. It's easy to connect to the flash, although the instruction sheet's not illustrated very clearly. On the other hand, you'll definitely find the video tutorial, albeit like an amateur home movie, very helpful and entertaining. The connection to the flash is, as advertised, very strong but practice first! Be prepared for "What the heck is that thing??" comments when you first start using it. Great Product The whail tail studio, simply put does everything it says it will, although a little pricy compared to other products in the market for light control, I really think they can't be compared because Gary Fongs whail tail studio does the job so much easier and in most cases better than anything else out their, I would put the unit as a must have for wedding photographers. Great delivery and shipping. When I was about to purchase, I was skeptical. Like any other person would have been. I mean I am spending more than 100 dollars and I wanted to make sure that this was legit. Only because people are taking advantage of other because of hard times. I was extremely content that the package was delivered in a very timely manner and with all the NEW pieces. Thank you! I love my defuser!
