I previously used a piece of white translucent plastic that I wrapped into a cone. I lit the sides of the cone and shot through a hole in the top. It produced even illumination without excessive reflections from shiny surfaces. < Richard: Try CPM,Inc. 10830 Sanden Drive Dallas, TX 75238-1337 214-349-6886 In their "Delta 1 Studio Equipment" catalog they offer several items that might work.
