I saw a link to one in the forums, but can't for the life of me find it. The item was something that attached to the top of an external flash, though not permanently, and had [i]two[i] reflector/diffuser things one could angle. I think the selling price was in the $30-$40 range. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

I have one. Its a nice improvement over the LightSphere --- it fits any flash (with LS you had to order one for each flash size), more directional, you can even fit gels to it.

It wasn't a Gary Fong item. The two reflector/diffuser things looked kinda eliptical in shape. I wish I could remember the name of the thing!!

Here are 2 pages of accessories for the 580 at B&H. Not sure which external flash you have.

I think I found it:
//www.dembflashproducts.com/diffuser/

How did I find it? Well, DPC's search is pretty lacking, so I used my favorite external search (hint: I worked on Yahoo's engine for a few years) and limited my domain to here, and kind of brute forced my way through various threads mentioning "diffuse fill flash".

my friend has a demb and likes it. I haven't really used it much.

I just ordered one of these with my new 430EX. Haven't used it yet, but I can't see how it's much different from any of the other plastic flash caps, and it was the cheapest :-)
