Have tested this flash a few times, but have not had the chance to use it in anger yet. Was impressed with the speed of this flash for a budget brand. The buttons are a little low-rent and can be fiddly in the dark, but the number of features you get with it (diffuser, reflector, TTL, off camera flash) make it a great accessory for the beginner, intermediate user or for anyone who just needs a flash on the odd occasion.
This is a very cheep option if you're looking for a flash with good features. The slave mode works perfectly, it is great on radio triggers and it works well. The build quality is very poor and the pop out diffuser broke the first time I used it without much abuse and the buttons are a little fiddly. But for the price, it is an awesome flash to start with with more features than brand names at twice the price. It's a great budget option to learn with but if you're looking for sturdy, reliable kit then it's not so great.
Bought this flash to go with a Nikon D7000 camera and will be used mainly for portraits and family pics. Likes :- feels good in the hand, wireless remote capable, Full TTL settings including zoom when mounted on camera, also wireless remote, cant beat it for the price. Dislikes :- nothing serious, though TTL setting dont work if lamp is tilted or swiveled. Has similar features and capabilities as flashes costing many times the price.
I bought this flash specifically to take the photos at a friend's wedding and in most ways it performed well; I realised that a guide number of 36 would not allow me to bounce the flash, so it was used through a diffuser. The unit was used off camera and there were no problems communicating with the camera via a Jessops lead. The unit with batteries is not too heavy to be used on camera, and the controls are effective and intuitive.
very easy to use . light and loads of features
