Paul's thread got me to thinking. I have a Lightsphere, the cloudy looking version. I have tried it on the Sigma 500 flash with poor results that I attribute to P-TTL. May be wrong. Anyway, today I purchased a Vivitar 283 and put the velcro on it to attach my Lumiquest bounce hood. The initial tests reminded my again why I liked the Vivitar and Sunpak flash units with the simple auto feature. Then I decided to see how the Lightsphere would react. Not bad, but there are some subtle differences between the two. The attached photo's show. I believe each is captioned to show which was which.
