    It works as advertised. I purchase while on sale at a discounted rate. The only issue I seem to have is with the battery compartment door not staying shut. I have to tape it down to ensure battery connection. Other than that. It works great

    This product is very good. I like it better than the Insignia version of this flash for my Canon DSLR. Although it is heavier than others, say the Insignia version, it's refresh time is awesome. In addition, the range on this flash is very even in disbursement, even beyond the 30 ft. range. It has worked out extremely well for me to highlight shadows, even out photo's, and sinc's well with my Canon.

    I replaced my 430exII with this unit at 1/3 the cost. It has a higher gn and the controls on the unit are easier to use. It sits higher and has a larger diffuser in flash head, both pluses for me. The build doesn't feel a good but then the 430 only lasted 2 yrs. I plan on at least one more. AND they are available at Best Buy all over if you need one now.

    Not bad for the price. As expected it isn't as good as Canon's flashes but certainly gets the job done for my needs. Biggest draeback is cycle time. I can only get 3 shots in a row neflre I have to wait nearly 30 seconds to shoot again. Nice GN for the price.

    I have two of these and have been very happy so far. One wouldn't flash while on the camera which i took back and exchanged. Best buy was great about it and exchanged it with no issues. I also have a Canon Speedlite that cost four times as much and wish i had that money back so i could buy 4 more of these.

    This is a store brand flash from Best Buy, and it really is a best buy. It is the higher-end store brand compared to insignia, another store brand (which is good too), this has all of the functionality( though a little bulkier) of a 430 EX II flash by Canon or maybe the SB500 by Nikon.

    I broke my original canon and wanted to have one immediately and bought this. Range of light is short and light spread is very poor. May be what I got is not good copy!!

    Excellent flash. I got it to slave from my Canon Speedlight 430EX and it could just as well be my primary. I like the built-in white reflector card for catchlight in subject eyes.

    Bought flash to complete my photography beginner pack. Flash delivers timely and enough light to complete your shot and make you look like a professional with the results to boot.
