The Puffer Plus Canon expands on the fundamental features of the first generation models, providing photographers with beautifully diffused lighting versus the problematic, harsh lighting that pop-up flashes create. The Puffer Plus eliminates harsh shadows, red-eye, and hot spots so photographers can achieve beautiful, professional-style photos with minimal equipment. Its compact size makes it ideal for travel and its universal capabilities make it ideal for portraits, group shots, or any scene that requires flash. Redesigned from the ground up, the new Puffer Plus Canon utilizes a new shield that is nearly double the size of the original Puffer shield and has an advanced, light-filtering, textured finish. The convenient sliding rail system allows for quick centering of the Puffer shield over the camera"s pop-up flash of current and older Canon SLR cameras. Affixed directly to the camera"s hot-shoe, the Puffer Plus does not interfere with in-camera systems to ensure the full capabilities of the camera are preserved. When not in use, the sturdy, travel-friendly Puffer Plus easily disassembles and stows in a camera bag or even a photographer"s pocket.
