    This upgraded Sony flash is outstanding. It provides a good amount of light in most situations and the fact that It operates as a slave or commander is a game changer. The modeling light is valuable when working in low light settings.. Excellent addition to any Sony mirrorless kit

    I just starting shooting with external flash drive, I need practice, practice to perfect my skills. I've did get good shots in low lighting . Need to turn flash in different angles to prevent shadows. Practice, practice, practice.

    I used this flash unit with my Sony a7III at a wedding recently and it performed brilliantly in the sunset shots (bounce flash filler) during the day and at the reception, which was held a night.

    Excellent External Flash for a7series cameras with a inexpersive price. This camera also can be used for remote controls with other flashes.

    This flash does not disappoint. It gives plenty of light and more than enough control. The multi-flash setup is also very good.
