Sto-Fen #OM-EX Omni-Bounce for Canon 420EX
The Omni-Bounce creates a diffused bare bulb effect, giving even coverage across the entire frame, with lenses from 15mm to 200mm in the 35mm format (and equal in other formats as well). The Omni-Bounce is easy to use and goes onto and off the flash in seconds with custom fitting (except for UNI model) and no touch fastener. Designed for years of service without the bulk of some other diffusers, it is small enough to fit easily into a gadget bag or pocket.

Great product that I should have bought long time ago. You see an immediate effect with much better light exposure - especially on faces. A must have for everybody doing indoor photos.

Comments about Sto-Fen OM-EX Omni-Bounce for Canon 420EX:
There's a noticeable improvement in lighting when using this product: the light is softer and more evenly distributed with less harsh shadowing. I also didn't notice any difference when running both camera and flash fully automatic.

Worked as I expected it to. I do not use a flash too often, but when I do now, this product does a great job of diffusing the light and making it look more natural.

Comments about Sto-Fen OM-EX Omni-Bounce for Canon 420EX:
[...] fits perfectly, it is a simple thing not much to say. I went with the Sto-Fen from the start so I can not compare it to other solutions.I used it for close ups (portrait and objects), passport pictures, etc. to soften/eliminate shadows. Works great.

Comments about Sto-Fen OM-EX Omni-Bounce for Canon 420EX:
This is a must have for the 420ex, while it is not a very strong flash, with this little attachment you'll get a 360 degree bounce and even shooting dead on into an animals eye, i slims tyhe chance of the famouse green eye effect. Provides a very solft light, that similiar to a soft box, but much smaller for portability and much cheaper. Highlt recommend ths product. Don't waste your money on the cheapo immitaions. Buy STO-FEN
