Create Better Images with Your Pop-up Flash

Photography is an expensive hobby; nobody will dispute otherwise. You may start off with just a simple DSLR but when the bug hits you’ll want to buy a zoom lens, then probably the nifty fifty, and an external flash, and a tripod… the list goes on. But what do you do when your new hubby just isn’t in the budget. You find alternate solutions to your problems until you can afford what you really want.

One of my biggest annoyances was the unnatural effects the pop up flash would generate. I’m always striving to create images with as much natural light as possible, and the popup flash doesn’t come close to “natural”.

At the time an external flash was not in my budget so I needed to find a less expensive but effective solution fast. Here are some of popular popup flash diffusers I have found, some I have tried for myself, some I have not. But all can help diffuse the light from your camera’s pop up flash. All of which can be used for just about any digital SLR.
