Snoot's that mount to flash?

What snoots are out there that will mount to Nikon flashes? I know of RPS Studio snoot only, just looking for other options.

Thanks ;)

Have you looked at ExpoImaging Rogue Flash Benders :thumbsup: the large one can be rolled up and makes a great snoot.

+1 on Alex's suggestion...I'd like to pick that up myself....Then you can always try DIY options with foil.

On the DIY option with foil, there are also outlets for colored foils (eg: gold) to add color to the light source...

I just use an empty Pringles tube with the end cut off and reinforced with black gaffer-tape...
Works a treat.

I've seen those around they look pretty good. Reminds me of Honl stuff (which is a good thing).

I usually just bounce my flash off some wall for soft directional light though.

bouncing flash off a wall is sometimes not possible, I have been in so many rooms with odd coloured walls and even ceilings, but if its white then yes thats the best option, took a look at the flash benders, they seem to look okay, Honl stuff is great and they have plenty of choice when it comes flash, as for the pringles tube with the bottom taken off!!! may well give it a try. :banana: :banana: :banana:

Doesn't Honl Photo make one also? A plastic one that collapses?
