We\'ve got one (the ray flash I think...). Here are my thoughts...
1) The light is nice, but not as nice as a studio ring flash. In the context of a wedding or engagement it works pretty well however as you also don\'t have the weight and set up time problems that a full studio ring would bring you.
2) It can put some unwelcome pressure on the flash. It\'s pretty light but still stresses the flash head some...
3) You have to like the effect it produces. Of course, you don\'t have to use it directly on the flash. I use it as an off camera slave sometimes because it can produce a different quality of light that way.
4) it takes a lot of practice. Not the easiest accessory to use and get good results from. I like it overall but it\'s not something you can just pop on an expect to have great success every time.
examples...

there you go...
