Hi Steve.I just left it on normal.I did not use the velcro,although next to duct tape my favorite product:),I secured it with a wide(ish) elastic band.It held very well.If i was close to the band member when i flashed him,i just dialed down to 1/2 to help.(I pre fired at the light meter over several situations and power modes and just remembered them when i needed.) I seemed to have fill flash problems,outdoor,with the 285hv and D1.I think,but yet to try it,it should help soften the light nicely. Well worth the $30.00 bucks. Dave

Dave: I have the Lumiquest Pocket Bounce myself, mounted on the 283. The 285 has the moving head for TELE, NORM, or WIDE setting. Does that mess up the Pocket Bounce? Does it fall off? Where did you mount the velcro, for best performance?
