Questions & Answers

Michael F : Using the diffuser on the Nissin mg8000, are the results good for close up/macro photography? Michael FHABIB M : My flash failed and l returned it however diffusers are always helpful with softer more even lighting. Since macro photography does not require strong outpu you may chose less expensive flashes to do the job.
bgillies b : Can a Quantum Turbo external battery be used with this unit?ANDREW R : This unit does offer an external power pack socket, however Nissin indicates that this is designed for use with their own PS300 power pack.

Interesting Product

I use this flash as part of a lighting set illuminating indoor rodeo. I bought three to supplement the Nikon flashes I am currently using. I couldn't be more happy. The arena setting and kind of action taxes any strobe's abilities, but this product did the job flawlessly. Plenty of good light, no overheating and played very with the Nikon speed lights (SB600's & SB910). Menu system isn't bad - certainly a lot less confusing than the 910. Nothing is perfect ... Flash head doesn't have locking system. It should. I got a deal with my flash purchases - the lights came with the PS-300 battery pack. Very nice.

Advertised to Be a Workhorse

I was impressed with capabalities of this flash. But it stopped working after the 15th picture. Either Nissin needs to modify the electronics of MG8000, or perhaps I received a faulty sample.
