Clip Bounce : DIY Bounce Gadget for 300D Internal Flash

[AReality]

Opppss...... seriously OT liao...

I guess most of the time, right handers with left master eye R bobo shooters?


OK la... Back to the topic liao...
I actually made 1 quite some time ago. But due to enough budget, the sigma flash saved the day...

Wat I had was a large piece of reflecting surface behind the flash, & 1 small piece in front of the flash. Held together by a rubberband. So the light goes from the flash to the small piece, bounces 90 deg up to the big piece, & bounces horizontally to the front...

the photo with bounce clip shows the true color. my ceiling is white but
my wall is creamy white. also, if you notice the no bounce photo, the legs
of the stool is white - but they are not - they are suppose to be creamy
white also - i.e. as shown in the bounce photo.

dun worry- your colour blind has NOT worsen

A bit confused.... Quite hard for me to understand, not a colour person.... :dunno:

Ok. I know this is gonna be so weird, but what if you installed a white card straight up above the flash. This way, the light bounces back to the subject. As it is, most of the photos are darker at the bottom.

This might work - I have been thinking abt that also - just no time to
experiment

Okie - let me try again - the bounce flash shows the true color - the no
bounce flash is too white/harsh, i.e. does not shows the true color. Or to
answer the way you ask, the bounce flash is not yellowish, rather the
no bounce flash photo is whitish(?)

I use Auto White Balance.

Do you have something with no flash (with longer exposure)?? Then I can easier to imagine the actual colour.. :embrass:
