Diffuser is an absolute must have accessory, July 3 2006

This diffuser is the same quality as the one that comes with the Nikon SB 800 flash. It is much better than other aftermarket diffusers that require velcro. This is made to fit the SB 600 perfectly. It snaps on and off easily. Angled at 75 degrees it provides excellent fill. I use it on the SB 600 set up as a slave with the SB 800 for fill and back lighting. It should have been included by Nikon as original equipment but is inexpensive and cost effective. Much better than the built in plastic flat diffuser.

Omni-bounce is good outdoors, Sep 20 2007
By Brian B. "Brian" - Published on Amazon.com
The Omni-bounce on my SB600 works like a champ for outdoor portraiture. I got it to reduce the hotspots when using direct flash, and it does exactly that. It also provides more even lighting for fill-flash...which I use a lot.It creates nice catch lights in the eyes and fills in the shadowy areas nicely. It takes next to no room in my gadget bag and weighs nothing. It also doesn't look silly like some diffusers do.
Shooting indoors, it still leaves some specularity which I personally find unpleasant, but since I got it for outdoor fill-flash use, I have no second thoughts about buying it.

jazz diffusion, Jan 29 2007

set the diffusion to 'stun' when you don't want your flash to 'kill' with harsh, sharp, shadowy edges. yes, you need this if you have an sb-600. why? nikon doesn't make a diffuser for that model. basically, it fits snugly on the tip of the flash, slides off and on easy, will also protect your flashbulb from acidental nicks, like that macro shot of the benihana chefs. here's what it does: diffuses your flash without having to go all into your menu settings and make adjustments. simple, Sherlock. the omni-bounce (what an imaginative name for a piece of shaped plastic) performs as expected, no real cons, except shipping adds almost 50% to the price, so check your local camera shop to see if they have it in stock before ordering.
