      @@urimsuh Oh wow! Glad I could help. I can't really say which one would be actually better. Probably the $30 is a lot more professional but for me, this one worked just fine and I can remake it and switch internal color with foil for example or switch the draft paper to one a bit yellowish to play around with it. That's what I love the most! Let me know how it goes for you!

      You put white paper on the inside to reflect the light out through the semi-clear screen. If I used foil on the inside would it be more reflective?

I was really hoping for a with and with out comparison photo at the end of the video.

    Ok. So first problem I had, was it was too small. I fixed that by extending the width a little. The new problem I'm having. Is my flash does not work when the tab is in the hot shoe!!! It has a sensor to turn off the cameras built in flash. If I don't use the tab, the diffuser falls off.

    • @thecraftingnookds
      @thecraftingnookds  2 года назад +1

      I'm so sorry it didn't fit. Curious about what camera you got. I have 2, an old Nikon and a Canon. It fits both and none of them have any problems fitting the tab in the flash shoe. It's hard to test on all cameras. Thank you for pointing this out.

      @thecraftingnookds  4 года назад +2

      Thank you! The tracing paper is regular printer paper so you can print the pattern and cut it out. The cardboard I don't really recall but the reference is the external flash slot it needs to fit in there.

      Yes, that's right, and a great point out! Mine had a weight enough for it not to press on the sensors so it works perfectly, but someone had told me that he used a thicker one and it did disable the flash. Thank you for your input, I appreciate it!

      The printable file can be printed in both Letter and A4 as long as you don't check fit to page. It will print to the right size. After that, you transfer the patter to the cardboard or your chosen material.

Usé el de 2mm grosor. Tiene que ser de un grosor que pase libremente por la zapata del flash externo de tu camara. Ya para la parte estetica depende de ti. La cartulina que mas te guste.
