Lose the Tupperware. Surprised Unless it's for indoor use and low ceilings.

It came with the flash and if I take it off I'll lose it Rolling Eyes I have used it indoor and it wasn't too bad but I consider it as protection more than anything. I've ordered a couple of those mini 'softboxes' to see what they're like instead. Smile

Thanks.
The idea is to make a steel bracket to fit under the camera which the two Velbon brackets can attach to. The two brackets should be free to swivel whatever direction I need. Two Yongnuo flashes, (one) wirelessly triggered by the 7D, no cables to get in the way. Very Happy
I'm thinking this could be used for portraits too...well, maybe Confused Question

The honour for the nice orange reflection is for the photographer! Well done SonicScot.
The coating of the lens isn't orange at all . At least not on mine. Rolling Eyes
I have two of these (MD since they first came out and a M42, purchased nearly 5 years ago for my DSLR).
