I think the zoom head is related more to distance from 3 or more meters away, where you have to concentrate the light within the frame.

You don't have any reason to do that with macro using a diffuser. It might help if you were targeting a butterfly or hummingbird without the diffuser, but you'd be farther away.

I used the Omnibounce type diffuser more like a bounce card. I don't think the zoom mattered anyway.
