I'm looking to get something to diffuse the flash on my 430EX but i'm not sure what to get.
I had my 580EX II set up on a light stand about 3 feet high and transmitted wirelessly with Pocket Wizard Plus II transceivers. I wasn't diffusing it with anything. I just had pointed straight at the riders at about a 45 degree angle to the camera and about 10 feet from the rail to give front/side fill light. Most of the time I was shooting at 1/4 power on the flash and 1/250th @ f11, ISO 800.

Does that help?
