Difficult to set-up

Had this flash a week and still can't get the battery compartment cover open. Am unwilling to break it so I have not used prying force. Looks like the manufacturer assembled this before the parts "dried" and they glued themselves together. The flash tube cover lens, which seems to be the wide angle one is also stuck tight. I want to use the telephoto one. Instruction booklet very poor. (GB translation)

Better Than A Pop-up!

This is a very small flash that does what I bought it for. And that is provide an adequate flash without red-eyeing anyone. I like it better than the Nikon SB400 because it sits just a little higher on the camera. It is tons better than the built in pop-up. It has several modes you can use it in and has a simple LCD on the back. Also comes with a telephoto and wide-angle diffuser. Downside is no bounce or swivel.

Great compact flash for point and shoot

Great German made product. Works very well with shoeless point and shoot digital cameras. The slave never failed during my testing after about thirty pictures at different ranges. I will probably get a second unit for portraits and table top pictures.

Great Slave Flash

The flash is used with a Sony DSC-W7. I am very pleased with this purchase. It is a must if you expect a good picture in darkness more than 10' away. In total darkness, I have had great pictures up to 60' away. You will not regret your purchase.
