If you’re strapped for cash but you really need a ring flash for your camera, Make has found some instructions that we think will be easy for you to do with some basic household stuff.
Because the instructions are in a foreign language, we can’t exactly tell you step-by-step how this basic ring flash is made—but looking at the pictures, it seems like with just an old plastic cup, bunt cake tupperware, duct tape and aluminium foil, you’ll have your own simple, homemade ring flash in no time.

Looks good and thanks for sharing!
I have built my home made ring flash as well! It may give you some idea as well.

I use it with a Canon 85mm 1.2L and 35mm 1.4L on 5D.
I absolutely love it!
Please leave comments about your experiences and how I can improve it!
