Probably the best flash diffuser I own, by far, is the Gary Fong Lightsphere!
The Lightsphere is a flash diffuser that you mount onto your camera-mounted flash. It diffuses the light all around the room to virtually eliminate shadows and red-eye..
Here is one of my Lightshperes mounted to my SB600 Speedlight..:
In the last picture, I put a toy key in the concave top for effect, because I didn't know if the concave design would be readily apparent.. The concave design redirects the flash all around the room, plus the flash penetrates the translucent dome to reflect off of the ceiling.. Generally, you point your flash head up when using the Lightsphere, and it makes for some beautiful pictures without harsh shadows or dark backgrounds.
Here are two comparisons:
And here is one review:
You can buy the Lightsphere on eBay or at www.garyfong.com, and it really is worth the money!
