Advanced Applications
1. Flash bounce card
The DF500 Electronic Flash includes a Flash bounce card which softens the
light of the flash and reduces the shadows.
2. Wide angle diffuser
The Wide angle diffuser can be used with the Flash bounce card for Macro
photography. This produces a softer light on objects within a closer range.
