Diffuser for MEIKE MK-C-UP

thingiverse

A "click on" diffuser for the MEIKE MK-C-UP which is part of the Super Macro Rig built and described by Micael Widell in his YouTube video: https://youtu.be/PW-44IKD8l0 To create a custom diffuser, I used a plastic bottle and a rubber band but having access to a 3D printer, I designed one of my own. The MEIKE MK-C-UP unit has what I measured as a 60mm male thread which is unused in the Super Macro Rig and although there isn't a corresponding female thread on my design, it will screw onto the MEIKE securely enough to remain in position. (If it fails to do so after repeated use, I suspect that a piece of sticky tape or PTFE may come in handy). As I'm still waiting for the delivery of my MEIKE flash, I haven't been able to test this out yet when taking photographs but the length of the diffuser doesn't project beyond the focus point of the lens so I don't foresee any sort of issues in that area. (I'm also still waiting for delivery of a step-down ring onto which I will place white tape as shown in Micael's video). No need for supports EDIT I have added a second diffuser which is 6mm shorter than the original - allows more light to get through from the external flash.
