I  use a LightScoop on my Canon in a pinch and it is great. It redirects the small built-in flash unit to bounce off the ceiling for diffused light, natural looking portraits! When you don't need the power of a big flash unit LightScoop still makes your shot look professional. No more cone of light, red eye and dark interior backgrounds. See for yourself on their website.

"IMPORTANT: As is true when bouncing an external strobe, the Lightscoop will NOT work in rooms with cathedral ceilings, paneled wood ceilings, in gymnasiums or churches,or in places like nightclubs with dark ceilings. When ceilings are too high or too dark, not enough light can bounce back to reach the scene below.The Lightscoop will not bounce outside." Ken Kobre
