- A diffuser is probably the most important piece of equipment to have as a macro photographer. Having a good one can really make a huge difference in your photos and in this video, I’m going to review one of the most popular macro diffusers out there, the akdiffuser.

Hi Trey, we are very grateful that someone with your experience appreciates our product, happy that you liked it and see the AK in your hands. On behalf of the AK family thank you so much. your work is impressive and happy that your channel continues to grow. congratulations Trey
I appreciate it 🙏🏾🙏🏾 means a lot to me
So many macro photographers out there are obsessed with just showing very detailed pictures of insect body parts. Your pictures put a better context of how you would see insects in nature if you were just obeserving them with your own eyes but way closer than your eyes will let you! Really great pictures, man!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾 means a lot to me
Very well done video! Glad you made an emphasis on doing focus stacks. I had not thought of that.
man I love your photography ..supper
Its so beautiful .
great images, patient dog and patient human. ✅
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Nice ! It took me a minute to realize you are stacking most of your images. That diffuser seems to have helped you out alot. Im looking at a neewer z2s flash right now and I think Im pretty sold on this AK diffuser. I use a laowa 100mm f2.8. That raynox adapter you have makes surprisingly good images
You're one of my favorite photographers to learn from. Seeing you review this diffuser when I'm currently waiting for mine to arrive made my whole day! I'm even more excited now. Thank you!
Thank you so much, means a lot 🙏🏾🙏🏾 glad it made you day and was helpful for you
extra cette vidéo , merci
pour ma part , je ne vois pas un énorme gain de qualité entre ton ancien diffuser et le nouveau
Your work is absolutely stunning. Well done video also. Very impressed with the striking use of context which nails the point of most great photography, that being the story.
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾 means a lot
Always inspiring!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I first found your channel looking at DIY diffusers. A little over a year ago I got the AK diffuser and like you I really enjoy it. Thanks for the videos.
You’re welcome 🙏🏾🙏🏾 glad you enjoy the videos
stellar photos. quality content. ❤
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Agree. I got mine a couple of weeks ago, and I love it. Nice work.
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Another wonderful macro video. Thanks for the endorsement of the diffuser.
Thank you so much 🙏🏾
Trey, it's good to see you move up to the AK diffuser. Since I bought one, I threw away all the other diffusers and never looked back. What a game changer. Worth every penny.
Yeah I absolutely love it. Has made a huge difference in my photos.
Thank you for your content💪
You’re welcome 🙏🏾
Been watching your videos for a while and this one helped me to make the decision to buy the mini. I already have a larger one for my bigger flash. THANK YOU.
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾 I’m glad the video was helpful for you
Great video and great shots, and a great suggestion that I had forgot to look into, thank you from Sweden.
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hi Trey, I really appreciate the fact that you shown also how great are the results with single exposures also. This is very encouraging for the ones that are beginners in handheld stacking. Awesome work!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾 I’m glad the video was helpful for you
Great acquisition, Trey. I picked up an AK a few months ago, and love it. I used to have a setup with an articulating arm attached to my camera holding a flash with it's own light modifier attached. It was heavy and clunky, almost impossible to hold steady with one hand. The AK makes it a much lighter and compact system. The results are fantastic.
Yeah the diffusion is fantastic and it just makes things easier, so glad I have one now
I ended up going with the cygnustech (which is pretty similar in a lot of ways) and am really happy with it. The AK is super legit too though. That raynox holder is cool. I didn't know it had that til your video. I'm excited to catch more stacked photos on your insta! Great video as always man!
I appreciate it man 🙏🏾🙏🏾 glad you are enjoying the cygnustech
Digging your work, awesome!📸
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Beautiful work.
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Wonderful photos👌
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Your photos are inspiring.
Thank you so much, means a lot 🙏🏾
You're still killing it, Trey! Great robber flies, so jealous you got them mating.
I couldn’t believe I got that one either. Easily one of my favorite shots this year
Your shots are stunning!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great shots!!! Interesting review.
Thank you.
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Nice video and awesome photos!
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Superb macrophotography! I just got the AK Diffuser. Can’t wait for the insects to arrive!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great video and photos. Subscribed!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Awesome video!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾
I found your video while doing some research on this diffuser. As someone whose been chasing insects for 25 years, I feel your pain. I've tried so many diffusers, bought and DIY, I'm thinking of trying this one. Well done, thanks.
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾 totally worth it if you decide to get one
Great video thanks for the time and effort put into it :)
Thank you so much 🙏🏾
Nice photos, thanks for the review as I'm looking at buying the AK diffuser or the cygnustech, haven't made my mind up yet.
Thank you and you’ll enjoy whichever one you choose
Impressive images.
Thank you 🙏🏾
and not sure everyone appreciates this but, you see Trey laying on the ground or squaring up for a photo but FIRST, he has to find the insect/spider, set up the off angle camera and then do the shot...I love it
Thank you so much 🙏🏾
Great photos. Yes please, a video on stacking moving subjects. A very well made channel, keep up the good work. M from UK
I appreciate it 🙏🏾🙏🏾 I will have that video up at some point soon
Thanks. All the best to you. M
Wow, great video…. You take some awesome photos! I’m seriously thinking about getting some macro gear and trying this myself!
Question… what camera and lens are you using? I have the Nikon D850
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾 I have an Olympus Em5 mark3 with a m. zuiko 60mm lens
You have some very nice photos
Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Very good video and good accessory for macro. Did you take the AK for the Olympus or Nikon? I still have a good understanding of how to remove problems in Focus stacking in Photoshop. I see your video but it is complex
I have it for my Olympus camera
Nice photos Trey! I´m thinking to get one of those difusers, After 5 months testing it, What do you think now?
Thank you 🙏🏾🙏🏾 my opinion is still the same, love it and I still highly recommend it
the spider at 3:34 Trey, superb! so, guess I should break down and get one...how long was your wait?
The shipping was fast. I got mine in 2 days
Brother, tell me which camera model is this and also the lens model, thanks
Hello! Does the diffuser bother you when you want to adjust the focus ring?
With my Olympus setup, I don’t use the focus ring on my lens. If I want to readjust the scene by zooming out or in, I just switch my camera to autofocus and once I get the scene I want I switch it back to manual.
Hello, what camera do you use and what lens? Can I do this with a Sony a6700? Where can I buy this diffuser? Thank you.
Olympus em5 mark 3 with a M.zuiko 60mm lens. I have a link in the description to the akdiffuser website, that’s where you can buy one
Chasing mostly dragonflies during daytime I can sympathyse SO much how frustrating it is when they fly away for the 100th time.
Oh yeah it’s very frustrating. I don’t even try to approach dragonflies anymore unless I find one on a cool morning
How do you stack without tripod?
It’s all about the technique honestly. I have another video that goes in depth with handheld focus stacking
pls teach me how to set the camera & flash to get X/fps
For focus bracketing? They key is to just shoot with a lower flash power, between 1/64 - 1/16 power
Flash Godox V350 or V860 III with lithium battery for fast charge time and Olympus Shooting Menu 2 > Focus BKT (Focus bracketing) > Flash Charge Time 0.1 sec
I'm glad to see you upgrading your rig. That extra light transfer is going to really increase the success of your stacks, which are already incredible. Now that it is official, you need to start tagging your Instagram photos with the AK. Now that I know you have been using it since July, I went back through your amazing Instagram page and looked at your photos. Simple incredible. HUGE fan!
I appreciate it🙏🏾🙏🏾 all the photos on my ig right now were took with my old diffuser. I haven’t posted any that were took with the AK. I’m very behind on editing, this video and the photos in it were filmed/shot in early July and I’m still editing pics from that month. This is just the beginning, all of my upcoming macro videos will have some of the best shots I’ve ever took so stay tuned.
