 How to Make a DIY Ring Flash Tutorial

You like Ring Flashes but you can’t pay the price? I have a solution for you, and it doesn’t involve stealing one from a store!

Make your own for a very very cheap price, about 20 euros. The only thing is that you need to already have a cobra flash. Ok, so let’s get started.


What you need.

* A plastic bowl (not too thick) whose base is about 8 cm of diameter. Your lenses need to be able to go through.
* Another plastic bowl, but slightly smaller, but not under 8 cm. It needs to get inside the big bowl, but your lenses will also have to go through it.
* A piece of pipe (PVC gives the best results in term of weight and toughness) about 5 cm long and 8 cm of diameter.
* Some aluminum foil
* A pen
* A ton of big tape
* A cutter
* And you’ll need some hard glue.
