Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very easy to use, not too heavy. Flash had self adjuat mode that makes it convinient for all occasions.

This is my first official flash and let me tell you it amazing. I really like it a lot for a beginner it make wonders. Definitely will recommend.

It’s a great flash, Ive used it at night events and it’s great.

Would 100% recommend this for getting great images in direct sunlight along with the ability to adjust the power for low light conditions as well. Just make sure you take the time to learn how to use the flash and practice!

for the price it works well with our nikon d810. Good backup for the SB-700 at a fraction of the price

It does the job for the price. Better than using the flash on camera

Overall, this product performs as intended: It provides an external flash for a camera at an affordable price. However, when I attached it to my EOS R5 I noticed a lot of issues that had it lagging behind. Firstly: It uses a visible range finder. For the most part this isn't a problem unless you're taking portrait photos and you're shining red cross hatch lasers in your subjects eyes. Then when I tried using the rapid fire function I saw that the 1/250 repeated flash was inaccurate after the first shot. The flash would go off, but the photos show that the flash is too slow to keep up with continuous shooting. Does it perform at lesser work loads? Yes. Can it handle the advertised universal task? NO. If you just need a flash for rare occasions, this is okay. If you are wanting very technical photography this doesn't cut it.

Previous owner of a sunpak flash had nothing but good experience with it. Being that I decided to purchase this one for my new camera and was very pleased with the features and performance.

You get what you pay for. First time flash buyer for my mirrorless Nikon. Took a bit of practicing for the settings but if you know about flash controls should not be an issue. On the heavier side.

I love the fact that I got this for 25 dollars used, and it works like a champ! Best buy is the best place to purchase open box items. I love it!

A little challenging to work with at first. Practice and youtube videos will help. Made a lot of my photos pop more and had to do less editing because of the increase of the light.

This flash is very bright and works very well for the price! Fit perfectly on my Canon T7!

WOAH! Okay, I had a flash previously. It busted on the day I had a shoot. I had to go to a super quick solution and picked this up. I am both impressed and amazed with the quality for the price! If you’re just starting out, this is a fantastic product!

Really nice flash, I picked one up because I have a Canon 6D and it doesn't have a flash. I had a wedding to shoot so I bought it for the price. Works well, a little tricky to get use to versus other flashes I've tried. You will need to buy a separate trigger if you plan to do off camera shooting. Great still for hobbyist to intermediate and will save you money!

Returned it way too big for my Canon Plus I got my small one to work blah blah 50 words

Excellent flash! So powerful! I purchased another when I tried the other one. Cant beat this price! Hogjly recommended. Thank you so much!

Just what i needed w/o killing the bank . Good Stuff

Excellent off brand external flash that works with our Nikon 5600. Th build is solid and flash is worth every penny. My wife loves this flash and uses it for stylized shoots, weddings and senior portraits.

Perfect for those moments when you need a bright flash and doesn't brake the bank

I have a Nikon kit. My strobe is a Nikon SB-910 which cost me around $480. I wanted to do multi flash Portrait Lighting, but I was not going to spend $1000 for two more Nikon strobes. I saw this Sunpak-DF4000U by accident and studied the packaging. It was selling for $59.99 but claimed to do everything my SB-910 did. I didn’t believe it, but I bought two of them to see what would happen. They worked with my 910. My 910 was the master and the two 4000 were slaves. Using TTL, the exposure was spot on. The 4000 came with a protective pouch, flash defuser, and tripod adapter/ stand. I also bought the light stands, umbrella, umbrella/strobe shoe holder and Panasonic eneloop black rechargeable batteries from Best Buy. The whole setup worked perfectly. It says it can do the same with a Canon kit, I can not confirm or deny that. The only small complaint is that the Nikon plastic is a bit higher grade than the plastic in the Sunpack-DF4000U. However, for a $420 savings on each strobe I’m not worried about it at all.
