Godox AK-R22 Collapsible Silicon Diffuser Dome for Godox Round Head Flashes
Stock Available: 12
Product Description
The Godox AK-R22 Collapsible Silicone Diffuser Dome is a purpose-built softening modifier designed specifically for Godox's round head flash systems. This compact diffuser transforms the direct output from your V1, H200R, or AD100 Pro into beautifully soft, wrap-around illumination that flatters subjects and eliminates harsh shadows. The collapsible silicone construction allows the dome to expand for shooting and compress completely flat for storage, making it one of the most travel-friendly flash modifiers available. Unlike the ML-CD15 which requires adapter brackets, the AK-R22 mounts directly onto Godox round head flashes, providing a streamlined, integrated solution.
This diffuser is ideal for portrait photographers using the V1 flash system, wedding photographers who need quick lighting modifications throughout the day, event shooters working with the compact AD100 Pro, and anyone using the H200R round head accessory with their AD200. Whether you're shooting candid moments at receptions, creating flattering headshots in the studio, capturing lifestyle portraits outdoors, or photographing products with soft, even lighting, the AK-R22 provides that essential diffusion in a package that won't dominate your gear bag.
Direct flash produces unflattering results characterised by hard shadows, hot spots on skin, and that unmistakable "flash photography" look that lacks sophistication. Whilst bouncing flash off ceilings and walls works well in controlled environments, outdoor locations and venues with dark, coloured, or absent bounce surfaces leave photographers without options. Traditional dome diffusers made from rigid plastic take up considerable bag space, are prone to cracking when knocked or dropped, and often provide only a single level of diffusion with no adjustment capability.
The AK-R22 addresses these challenges through thoughtful design. Its collapsible silicone construction offers three distinct expansion positions, allowing you to customise the degree of diffusion and light spread to match your shooting requirements - fully expanded for maximum softening and the widest light spread, partially collapsed for moderate diffusion with more controlled directionality, or minimally extended for subtle softening whilst maintaining more punch. The flexible silicone material withstands the inevitable bumps and knocks of location work without cracking or breaking, unlike brittle plastic alternatives. When collapsed, the dome compresses completely flat, occupying minimal space in your camera bag or even fitting in a jacket pocket. The direct-mount design eliminates the need for separate adapter brackets, creating a clean, secure attachment to your Godox round head flash that won't work loose during shooting. Installation is instantaneous - simply press the diffuser onto your flash head and you're ready to shoot. The result is soft, flattering illumination that spreads omnidirectionally, filling shadows and creating that professional quality of light that makes subjects look their best.

Common Dos and Don'ts
✓ Try each of the three expansion levels in similar shooting conditions to learn which degree of diffusion works best for your style
✓ Collapse the diffuser flat between assignments to maintain the silicone's elasticity and shape memory
✓ Clean the silicone surface with a slightly damp cloth if it collects dust or fingerprints - the material wipes clean easily
✓ Keep the diffuser in an easily accessible pocket of your camera bag for quick deployment when lighting conditions change
✓ Combine the dome with fill cards or bounce techniques when working in venues with suitable reflective surfaces for even more flattering results
✗ Don't expect the same light output as bare flash - the diffuser reduces intensity by approximately 1-2 stops, so adjust your flash power upwards
✗ Don't try to force the diffuser onto incompatible flash models - it's specifically designed for Godox round head systems and won't fit properly on rectangular speedlights
✗ Don't store the diffuser whilst expanded for extended periods - keeping it collapsed when not in use preserves the material properties
✗ Don't assume maximum diffusion is always optimal - sometimes partially collapsed positions provide better results with more controlled light direction
✗ Don't leave the diffuser attached to your flash during transport in your bag - remove it and collapse it separately to prevent damage and maintain its shape
