    One of the best flashes I used for a camera! At first I didn’t expect it to work for my Sony a6000 but it surprisingly did! Pictures came out amazing after using it and I would definitely recommend it!

    Heavy, difficult to understand, no recharging battery. Flash intensity is adjustable and does work well but I ended up replacing with a lume cube (also sold at Best Buy) which is a better all around option for lighting!

    it gets an extra star only because when the flash did work, it worked great. the issue isn't the bulb but rather the batter slot. spring the presses the battery up dies within a year, this means the coverplate is not flush up against the battery. You can jerry rig a fix of course, but this makes the flash way too cumbersome to use if you have to replace the battery in a gig. expect the flash to last a year tops because the batter holder gets loose and renders the entire flash pretty much useless.

    Absolutely love it. The red beam AR auto focus helps me take pictures at night in dark areas. I would recommend buying rechargeable batteries since that's what it takes to use.

    I’ve been using these for awhile now and honestly they still hold up to this day. There’s definitely better but for the price this delivers quality results and is far better than not having one when you need it!
