Here's the video, if you can not view it just follow this link to watch it on YouTube.
Here are two sample images I took this morning to demonstrate the kind of light I got from my DIY beauty dish. Click on either image to view larger and in a new window.
The first image was shot with an SB-800 using the Sto-Fen style diffuser that comes standard with it. Notice the harshness of the light and the sharp distinct shadows.
This image was shot with my beauty dish, the light is more diffuse, the shadows much softer, resulting in a better picutre.

Great post - and another project I want to do as well...DIY is always a lot of fun! :)
I'm the sort of hombre who loves to seek fresh stuff. Presently I'm making my personalized pv panels. I'm managing it all by myself without the help of my men. I am utilizing the internet as the only path to acheive this. I stumbled upon a very brilliant site that explains how to contruct solar panels and so on. The web site explains all the steps involved in solar panel construction.
I'm not really sure about how correct the data given there is. If some guys over here who had experience with these things can have a see and give your feedback in the thread it would be grand and I'd extremely value it, cauze I extremely like solar panel construction.
Thanks for reading this. U guys rock.
