DIY Beauty Dish




So I really wanted to make my own beauty dish being that I don't really want to pay for something that I think I can make.    This is by far the best quality and design of all the DIY plans that I found.   The only issue with this is the price of the bracket.   If you don't just have one laying around, expect to pay about $75.00 for the Lastolite at B&H Photo.   You can find a similar analog on Ebay for about $30.00.   So overall you will end up spending about any where from $50.00 to  $100.00 for this setup.   But what you end up with directly competes with the professional consumer versions out there at just over $350.00.    For more detailed instructions for this DIY project, you can visit Todd OwYoung's web site at; www.ishootshows.com.
