White diffuser are the most commonly used accessories for diffusing light. It is used when there is not much time to set the flash, scenes can change quickly, it is not possible to work with the reflection of the flash from the wall, shooting with the flash directly and we need to have the camera-flash assembly as compact as possible, without large attachments. The main advantage is the softening of light, suppression of sharp shadows, in the faces of photographed persons and shadows of persons on the walls, suppression of skin reflections.

Colour diffuser most often green and orange. Same accessories as white only. An amazing tool for solving problems with combined light. You know it. You shoot indoors with an illuminated incandescent or fluorescent light, and you use the flash. How to set the colour temperature? While the solution is simple, use a colour diffuser that "colours" the flashlight to the colour temperature of the lighting used. Setting the colour temperature is then easy.

Diffusers are mounted on the flash head, you need to choose the right type according to your type of flash. The compatibility table can help you choose the appropriate variance.
