The original diffuser has the advantage that he at the Metz flashes an adjustment of the zoom setting to the full width of causes (by slightly pushing the lens / reflector card. Thus, the entire diffuser is illuminated (the sides), which is important for the lighting effect . This is provided in the flash devices so rather not work as I know, at least in all the cheap products / replicas, certainly at "lightning socks" because forgives you to design opportunities.
Of course, the diffuser fits perfectly on the Metz flash (in my case, the Metz mecablitz 52 AF-1 digital).
The result: beautiful, soft flash photography even in energy-efficient "frontal flashes". Who knows what a diffuser can and can not do, will not be disappointed. I find a diffuser expands the design possibilities when flashing tremendously and is absolutely worth its price - buy recommendation.
