Sto-Fen Omni-Bounce for the Minolta 5600HS Flash.

I have never used one of these before, but it seems to do ok. It softens the intensity of the flash, yet allows enough light for a good picture. It seems to work better for distances not exceeding 15 feet.

My only experience using a flash has been my A100 pop-up. When I got my 56AM for Christmas, I never once used it without the Sto-Fen diffuser, so I don't have any legitimate 56AM images to compare or contrast, but it's functioned well for me so far and did well at a wedding this past weekend.

Otherwise, it arrived on time and everything works great. It's a very snug fit, so if you get one and think you may have purchased the wrong diffuser, keep trying, it's hard to get on, but it will eventually.
