We are in this quarantine thing now and I get tired of
watching television all the time. So, I did a little test today with two bounce cards.
One was the MagMod, Mag Bounce
Mag Bounce $44.00
Mag Grip $25.00
Total cost $69.00
Total weight 1.42 pounds (a little heavy for on camera)
The other was the Demp Saucer Flip-It
Flip-It $37.95
Weight 1.6 oz (much less weight)
For the test I set up a meter (the meter was set for
ISO-100, shutter speed 1/160) and flash 72” apart. With a Godox V860-II flash
at full power, the Mag Bounce metered at f/6.3-1 and the Flip-It metered at
f/6.3-3, slightly higher that the Mag Bounce but not enough to matter. I have
been using the Flip-It on camera because of the weight.
