Product Description:
The Omni-Bounce creates a Diffused Bare Bulb Effect. Giving even coverage across the entire frame, with lenses from 15mm to 200mm in the 35mm format. (And equal in other formats as well.) The Omni-Bounce is easy to use and goes onto and off of your flash in seconds with custom fitting, except UNI, and No Velcro. Designed for years of service with out the bulk of some other Diffusers, it is small enough to fit easily into your gadget bag or pocket.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Works well - fits 580 EX-II
The Sto-fen works well for most indoor shots with my 580 EX-II. Because of the rubber edge strips on the EX-II it fits a lot tighter than on the original 580 EX and can sometimes be a little hard to remove from the flash.
I also have a Omni-Bounce for the 430 EX flash and was pleased to find that it can stack completely inside of the slightly larger 580 model so saves valuable space in my carry case.
As is clearly stated by Sto-Fen, the Omni-Bounce costs 2.5 stops, but with a 580 EX and shooting at ISO 400, that's really not a concern.
Rating: - must have for the 580ex
This is a great diffuser, and worth the extra (small) expense. Simple, easy to use and worth the cost.
Rating:  - Not Needed
There is really no reason for a photographer to buy this, a bounce card (which is built into the 580EX) serves the same purpose when one isn't using direct strobe and one should rarely if ever use direct strobe in shooting. You're wasting your money, especially $11 for something that is really just translucent plastic.
Rating: - Okay
It works as advertised.....I love soft lights when using strobes and I have this little guy to help me achieve my desired effects day in and day out...I also have Gary Fong's lightsphere which is better but the bulk of the lightsphere is a turn off.
Rating:  - Ok, warm tint
If this was $4 it would be 4-5 stars. For $15 it's hard to not feel like you're being taken advantage of. It works. It softens the light (and decreases the light output). Unfortunately it also changes the color of the light. The auto-white balance setting on cameras that get color info from the flash will make things too red, but that's easy enough to fix later. I hardly ever use it since my walls and ceiling are white and I get a much nicer effect bouncing the flash when indoors.
