LightGuide Mirror.jpg

Test shot in mirror to illustrate light distribution. About 50% of the light blasts straight out the end of the flat section at the top. The remainder is divided and pretty well channeled by the light guides. A small portion scatters out at defects in the acrylic caused by overheating. Light distribution with this configuration is photographically excellent.

Are you using LEDS to provide the light, or is that the flash? I'm wondering because I can't see the LEDs mounted to the camera.
