Disclaimer: I received a Lightscoop for reviewing purposes. As always, the opinions expressed are entirely my own.
Photography is one of my most favorite things to do (if you haven’t noticed)! Taking photos with a flash is not. In the past, I’ve become frustrated when taking photos inside ( hello dark lit restaurants), at night or with friends in a dimly lit room. Times have changed y’all!
Professor Kobre’s Lightscoop is a mirror for your camera flash which deflects the flash from the subject of your shot. The Lightscoop device is placed in front of your flash, the light is deflected off the mirror of the Lightscoop, reflected off the walls and ceiling which brightens the subject (indirectly).
Thus, your picture will not be incredibly light, your friends will not be blinded and your fear and frustration of taking these photos will disappear!
Take a look at these photos – I shot them in completely dark rooms. You’d never know!
Shot from my kitchen, no lights.
Closet. Pitch dark.
Would you have any idea that this room was completely dark?
With our natural sunlight time getting shorter everyday, this will come incredibly handy in taking those inside photos this winter and fall and is also a great gift for the holidays.

I don’t have an external flash, so this would come in handy!

I am. Thank you – I’ll fix it really quick!
Ah!!! I don’t have any neat contraptions for my camera!! This would especially be useful in the winter when it gets dark so early!
I would use it on gloomy days.

I will use it whenever a flash is truly necessary…I try to use natural light when I can but this would be helpful when thats not a possibility!

I don’t have an external flash yet. So I would use it indoor spaces that need more light than the normal flash would crappily provide.
