Lightscoop – Better SLR Pictures {Review}

ABOUT:

Lightscoop is a smart low-tech device that creates soft, flattering light by redirecting your camera’s pop-up flash to a ceiling or wall.  It is simply slipped on a SLR camera’s pop-up flash.  Allows you to take professional photographs without having to buy or learn expensive extra lighting equipment.

Don’t let your pictures get ruined by:

• Red eye
• Ugly shadows
• Hot spots
• Bleached out faces
• Underexposed colors
• Blurry movement

MY THOUGHTS:

So I got this fancy Digital SLR Nikon D5000 camera a year ago and I admit pretty much every picture has been on “Auto.”  I know, I know, I could take so many pictures by changing around the settings myself but I am lucky I even have time to take pictures!  So lately I have been playing around with the different settings and that is where the Lightscoop comes in.  The Lightscoop is a simple piece of plastic with a reflective part that easily attaches onto a SLR camera and makes it so light can bounce off it and take great pictures.

I guess I assumed that since I have a nice fancy camera that my pictures would be great, wrong!  Sometimes the flash can cause all sorts of ugliness in pictures because of they way the lighting bounces off objects and walls.  Just reading the Lightscoop manual I already learned a few tips!  The manual walks you through changing your Manual setting on your camera so the Lightscoop works perfectly.  I definitely have a long way to go with picture taking but I have found that the Lightscoop really is beneficial.  Once I really get the hang of things I know my pictures will be amazing!  There is nothing wrong with the product, just me having the time to play around with my camera settings and environment!

BUY IT:  Check out Lightscoop for $29.95.
