I made my own. similar to this design works brilliantly! and saved a lot of money in the process

[ronaldbuitendijkfotografie]

Got one last summer as well. Absolutely love it! Used a cheap diffuser before and the difference is remarkable

[past.avazoo]

I just ordered mine - Brendan is lovely and very easy to deal with. Can't wait for it to arrive!

[CrashEd]

By far one of the best diffusers I’ve tried to date. And, one of the only ones to fold down completely flat, which means it fits into a backpack easily. Brendon is a really nice guy to deal with too. Thanks for another great review Stewart! 👍

[bnielsen]

He needs a website like a big boy. I got one from him last year. I like it a lot.

I've been on the Cygnustech bandwagon for a few years now and have never looked back. I have 3 diffusers including one for the OM 12-40. Certainly the best bit of kit to take your images to the next level.

Yep been shooting macro for the last year as an add-on to my landscape photography and been shooting with Olympus for 10 years. Searched the internet for diffusers and luckily found out about Cygnustech - bought one for my 60mm macro lens and V350 Godox and love the setup! Just makes macro shoots so much easier. And the fact that the diffuser packs flat is one of the biggest advantages IMO as I travel a lot! 😉👍

[AlexanderSogliero]

This is great. Thank you for the in depth review. Just excellent. 👏

I went on a macro workshop with my trusty twin light flash, the leader got me to put my single flash on & he then added the weird looking diffuser. Looking at the back of my camera. I saw a massive improvement of lighting quality really soft and natural looking. Has soon has I looked at an image on screen, it gets even better. My twin flash is now been sold, and I am in the process of getting the diffuser to my set up

[thealove]

Can't recommend Brendan's diffuser highly enough! I love mine to bits, it's my 'go to' bit of kit

[markinthemix]

I just subscribed and clicked the bell because this is the BEST explanation on this product l have found. I have seen so so many videos basically saying this is great just buy it and l feel very incomplete with what l need to order. Good job.

[sagetrillion]

My one of these arrived yesterday. I overlookd the bit about the LED. So found myself very blind on finding critters on my night walk that I could see by eye. Feel something like this should be in the manual he includes. But I was surpised about how easy the setup was otherwise. Cheers for the vid.

[jeroenck]

Just love it. Started with a pope shield diffuser. This one is so much better. Worth every penny

[PhillipMcCallum]

Love my Cygnus tech diffuser, had it about 18mths now

[Jumpingspiderlife]

I love mine! Great info on your video 😊

[BrianAustin]

Hi Stuart
I was in attendance of you talk at Burton Photographic society earlier in the year, great talk, I got a diffuser a few weeks ago. So I am practicing with it for summer 2024. GREAT VIDS BY THE WAY Regards Brian

[happymystic]

Very interesting and insightful video. ❤ … have you ever tried to shoot plants and other subjects with this diffuser? Thank you, cheers …

[Blum]

Cześć. Jaka jest długość tego dyfuzora?
Będzie dobry na obiektyw Nikon 105 mm?

[BrianAustin]

I ordered 2 this morning, works great

[deborahriley]

Love the review Stewart. You’ve convinced me to choose the Cygnustech. Just a question, what size is the protective pouch. I need to get a new bag and just want to ensure that it will fit. Many thanks
