    Impressed for the price
    ***NOTE*** THIS IS A MANUAL FLASH...YOU CANNOT USE YOUR CANON CAMERA FLASH MENU TO CONTROL THE FLASH.I must say, I didn't have high expectations for this flash. I checked some of the reviews and they were mixed, but reviews are a small part of the reason I make a purchase. The flash is pretty well built for the price range, and seems like it will last for a long time. The optical slave NEVER misses, and it's extremely sensitive even when it's turned in the opposite direction of the master flash. Even though I'm a professional Photographer...to me...Light is light no matter where it comes from. If your flash cost you $500...can I use this flash an create the same image?...You bet I can...How you use your equipment is more important than what equipment you have. Don't get me wrong though...more expensive pieces of equipment usually have more options and allow you certain freedoms, but ehhh...learn with the cheap stuff, and once you see your limits with this equipment...move on from there.******************************************Update!!!!: 9/11/2013First of all (today is 9/11) my condolences to those who have lost loved ones as I did in the attacks)It has been ALMOST 2 years since I've purchased 3 of these flashes, and they are still working PERFECTLY!!!I'm not a fan of spending money on things that will breakdown in the future, and these flashes have been banged around and thrown all over the place yet they still continue to produce excellent light for my photography needs.I usually use them for background, hair lights, and sometimes as a filler when it's needed and they have been great. The construction is solid, ease of use is key, optical slave is super sensitive and reliable. When you have good batteries in them...the recycle time is quick. I recommend VERY good rechargeable batteries (eneloop and powerex have never failed me).******************************************Update: 12/9/2013I ordered another one today to use as another slave...the other 3 that I have are still working perfectly fine and I have never had a problem with them at all. for such a cheap product...it's pretty shocking that they last this long and contunue to fire on command in slave mode without a miss!!!! I might be getting 2 more of these for a total of 6...some of my light setups are very elaborate, and I've learned the distance to power ratio in my studio of these flashes and never need to meter tham...they add light just where I need it when I have a snoot on each one. PERFECT!!!

    I'm not a fan of spending money on things that will breakdown in the future, and these flashes have been banged around and thrown all over the place yet they still continue to produce excellent light for my photography needs.

The optical slave NEVER misses, and it's extremely sensitive even when it's turned in the opposite direction of the master flash. Even though I'm a professional Photographer...to me...Light is light no matter where it comes from. If your flash cost you $500...can I use this flash an create the same image?...You bet I can...How you use your equipment is more important than what equipment you have. Don't get me wrong though...more expensive pieces of equipment usually have more options and allow you certain freedoms, but ehhh...learn with the cheap stuff, and once you see your limits with this equipment...move on from there.

    Update!!!!: 9/11/2013

    First of all (today is 9/11) my condolences to those who have lost loved ones as I did in the attacks)

    It has been ALMOST 2 years since I've purchased 3 of these flashes, and they are still working PERFECTLY!!!
    I'm not a fan of spending money on things that will breakdown in the future, and these flashes have been banged around and thrown all over the place yet they still continue to produce excellent light for my photography needs.

    I usually use them for background, hair lights, and sometimes as a filler when it's needed and they have been great. The construction is solid, ease of use is key, optical slave is super sensitive and reliable. When you have good batteries in them...the recycle time is quick. I recommend VERY good rechargeable batteries (eneloop and powerex have never failed me).

    Update: 12/9/2013

    I ordered another one today to use as another slave...the other 3 that I have are still working perfectly fine and I have never had a problem with them at all. for such a cheap product...it's pretty shocking that they last this long and contunue to fire on command in slave mode without a miss!!!! I might be getting 2 more of these for a total of 6...some of my light setups are very elaborate, and I've learned the distance to power ratio in my studio of these flashes and never need to meter tham...they add light just where I need it when I have a snoot on each one. PERFECT!!!

    This is a good manual flash. I picked up five of these. They all work well with my Canon 6D, works with Phottix Strato II radio triggers, great for added flash. If you put these in Mode S1 they can be triggered by another flash going off. Kind of comes in handy that way. I had 4 of these hooked to radio triggers and one just on a stand with no radio receiver, put it in s1 mode and it still triggered. So you can still have this pretty far from your camera as long as it is close to another remote flash, if it see's the flash it goes off. It also has a PC input, so you could have have one on a hot shoe radio receiver and if your radio receiver has a PC Flash out run a wire over to it and fire two off one radio receiver if you didn't want to rely on the S1 flash trigger. So there are a few options for getting it to fire off camera.

    It has a handy test flash button. This flash is the same size and basic shape as my Canon 580 EX II but does not have the Canon extra features; like no ETTL; no hi-speed sync, no first curtain and second curtain. It's just a basic manual single pin flash that works on camera or of, can be triggered from other flashes like Canon 580 EX II on your camera, just set the flash to S1, 3 modes; Manual S1 and S2.

    MANUAL MODE is just a basic hot shoe mount triggered flash, or PC line triggered flash.
    S1 MODE the flash will trigger when it sees another flash go off.
    S2 MODE the flash will trigger on the second flash it see's, this is in case you want it to ignore your cameras pre-flash.

    Manual Flash is great and some photographers prefer working with manual flash because they don't like how ETTL could put out more flash power than they want, they prefer to fine tune their light for their photos. If you work with these for a while you'll quickly get the hang of setting your power levels for even shadowless shots.

    I give this flash a big thumbs up. Good value and a good build quality. I know other pro photographers using them.

    They come with a plastic stand similar to the one that comes with the Canon 580 EX II, plus their stand has a standard Metz screw hole that will allow you to easily attach it to a stand if needed. It takes 4 AA batteries just like the Canon 580 EX II. Very easy push buttons that feel like they have a solid build and easy to read LED indicators for power level setting and mode and when flash has cycled and is recharged ready to go again.

    Great for photographers just getting started into photography on a budget or pros. You can't beat the price. Granted they are not Canon 600EX-RTs, but you can buy 5 of these for under $200, the trade off is they are only manual flashes.

    Pour le prix c'est plutôt bon ! Prévoir des piles rechargeables.
    Différent niveaux de flash, s'adapte parfaitement que un hybride ( Lumix g9)
    Pas de configuration requise
    J'en suis très content !

    Helaas gaat deze retour. Ziet er degelijk uit, testflits deed het goed, maar Canon 650D, een wat ouder model, kan het niet vinden met deze flitser. Kan functies niet instellen, camera geeft aan: niet compatibel of uitgeschakeld bij instellingen functies externe flitser. Normale flitser van camera werkt, kan deze externe er niet op vinden of gebruiken. Jammer

    No es el mejor flash del mercado pero si estas buscando un flash para usar totalmente en manual, es perfecto y relación calidad precio, perfecto para personas que se quieran iniciar en la fotografía con luz artificial.

    Yo lo uso con unos conectores inalámbrico y con softbox de hasta 90cm y tiene potencia suficiente.

    Hasta el momento no tengo una sola queja de este producto.

    Importante aclarar que NO se conecta con la cámara, pero en mi caso para la fotografía de producto a nivel profesional es perfecto, si hiciera un evento seria otro tema

    I recently bought a Canon M50 mark II and did a little research on the web for the best budget exteenal flash. This model was the most recommended and I went for it. It's easy to use, very basic and the flash made a huuuuge difference compared to the in-built flash. Worth every penny!
