Q: 5. Why is the inner surface not smooth? What benefit does this have?

A: If it were shiny and smooth then the light it casts would be somewhat similar to that of a parabolic reflector such as the ones found in many flashlights or automobile headlights. As such, it would be much brighter in the center than around the edges. The textured surface reflects the light in many directions and thus provides for a more even beam.

Q: 6. Can I put on this boom microphone

A: The Photoflex Telescopic LiteDisc Holder (870256) is built more for the LiteDisc than to hold accessories. There isn't much to counter balance. There is a 3/8 stud at the back end, and a flush-top 5/8 stud at the front end. A light-weight mike may be able to be attached to either end.

Q: 7. How much stops of light does it cut down?

A: This diffuser cuts 1 stop of light. Firing an Alienbees B800 at full power into a 46 inch softlighter, I get a reading of f/11 at 8 feet (ISO 200). With the LiteDisc Diffuser in place the reading is f/8 at 8 feet (ISO 200). I hope that helps!
