Jan 13, 2011 - how does the grid effect the flash???sorry... noobie :P
WeeklyPhotoTips Says:
Jan 13, 2011 - First, no need to apologize.Second, it (the grid) will focus the light in the direction the flash and grid is pointed and will minimize light from spilling anywhere except where you want it.Hope that helps.

Jan 16, 2011 - Curious (and sorry if this has been asked) but where did you find the actual black plastic holder for the grid? it looks great! Nice videos...thank you.

Jan 16, 2011 - The grid I used for the demonstration of the David Hobby "hack" was a David Honl "store bought" grid.

Mar 23, 2011 - Think of the grid as a cluster/bunch of little tubes all stacked together. The tubes act to channel the light in a much straighter line than if you use no grid at all... The size/shape of the holes/tubing and length all work together to determine the pattern of light you focus on your subject.

Jan 31, 2012 - so I suppose this only works if you keep the flash in a 90 degree state
