Pieroway Makes Printed Strobe Bouncers For 5c
Wouldn't it be nice if there was a technology that can print whatever you want? Like a lens of a D3 body? Actually StarTrek featured a replicator that does exactly that, but as far as I remember it malfunctioned at one point and only replicated sausages and plants.
Anyhow, the family of printable gear (Gels, Lenshoods, Pinhole cameras and photography cheatsheets) just got a new member - Pieroway. A page dedicated to printing Lumiquests-like bouncers.
We have had bouncers before, but never one that prints both sides of the paper in a single click.
You can choose Nikon, Canon or Blank logo. The instructions says to print on stock card - I tried printing on heavier than usual paper.
Use photos, and a piece of history after the jump.This is how the paper comes out of the printer
Font and back sides on a strobe
Folded for storage / bag-tacking
Of course, you can always attach it to a black foamy for a little more sturdiness.
And for all the fans like me...

Flashes need friends too
Yes and Yes! I've been taping all sorts of crap to my flashes for quite some time. It never ceases to amaze me how much it affects the light. I love the soft bounce. I've taped post cards, business cards, and even love letters from girls that don't like me anymore.
What's even neater (more neat) is that you can use different colored papers to add the effect of the gel. Yup, cheapest, easiest gel ever.
Also, I like using the glossy sheets from photo paper for a bigger bounce!
great tip.
Nice template. And I have to
Nice template.
And I have to ask...what does Picard say at the end? Tried 5 times, couldn't make it out...

Sushi to the rescue
I forgot my bouncer and improvised with a white, laminated placemat from a sushi restaurant and packing tape. It worked very well and subjects laughed when they saw it.
