colour flash gels

[dddolllyyy]

i was wondering about colour gels for flashes. are they reusable and easy to fit on? how do you fit them on???? etc
thanks

Yup, they are reusable and easy to fit - just cut to size and then attach to the flash with a rubber band, or if you can be bothered use Velcro to do the same job.

wilkinsons, black velcro dots, about £3 for a big pack... put two 'soft' ones on your flash, and the loops on the ends of the gels

HI. I'm using gels from Damien Lovegroove. They are great and very easy for use.

thanks so much. would you recomend getting the gel colours over purchasing an actual coloured flash?

A coloured flash? I didn't know there was such a thing.

yepppp you can get them seperate or fixed on the camera, it's more lomography though =) google coloursplash

I've just run up a "how-to" on creating a DIY Gel Holder on my photography blog.

Hope this is of use to you
