Comments about Sunpak Sunpak Digital Camera Flash Adapter Bracket with Built-in Slave:
Chose the right setting for your flash from the 5 provided by a small switch. It will allow the addition light output needed for indoor use such as a wedding reception hall. The only improvement would be if the bracket folded instead of clipped apart.
Comments about Sunpak Sunpak Digital Camera Flash Adapter Bracket with Built-in Slave:
I bought 2 of these and neither work well. Mode button never responsive. and slave seldom activates flash, regardless of positioning of camera and or bracket.
Comments about Sunpak Sunpak Digital Camera Flash Adapter Bracket with Built-in Slave:
[...] What I like about these slave handles is that they work with all the cameras I haved tried them with, and I can use them with any non-dedicated flash I choose--from my little two cell fill flash up to my Sunpak 382 and beyond. Also the slave flashes that I have that never worked well, when set to manual, perform very well on the handle.The cons are that the construction is almost all plastic--though used well--and the switches are very small (i.e. tiny) and easy to reset by mistake. That being said, considering the price and the reliable performance when properly set up--it's hard to deduct any stars. I just wouldn't mount anything on the bracket larger than a medium-size SLR with a small lens, and its a good idea to remove the batteries between uses in case the on/off switch is accidentally turned on--lightly brushing against it will do it. Just a suggestion, one of these handles with a non-dedicated flash like the Vivitar 2800 makes a pretty impressive and reliable slave set-up for your digital camera for around $50.

Comments about Sunpak Sunpak Digital Camera Flash Adapter Bracket with Built-in Slave:
it does the job it was designed for. a little on the weak side, but with a roll of tape just in case. the price is low enough i don't mind replacing it from time to time if something terminal strikes.

Comments about Sunpak Sunpak Digital Camera Flash Adapter Bracket with Built-in Slave:
I am a Sony DSC-W1 camera owner. The camera is great. The only drawback of the camera is lack of flash adaptor and PC hole. Althought I pay little for purchasing this camera rather than a Digital Single Lens Sony A-100, I do expect it gives me more convenience.
Once I get used to the camera, I find it cannot fulfill my requirement to use two flash-guns to give a shadowless picture. Especially the flash-guns I have got are goodie-oldie. They are Sunpak Power Zoom 4000AF for Canon EOS film camera. By the way, I owned EOS 1000 FN since ten years ago.
I bought the slave unit only two days ago. I have the same experience as those people giving their own opinions here. The unit is too weak to support a heavy flash-gun. Lack of PC hole is a great drawback to me as well, because I do quite a lot of still life at home. I have got a flash adaptor with PC hole which I bought so many years ago. Surprisingly, the slave unit works well with my flash adaptor even I connect it with a `one to three' PC hole adaptor. Two flash-guns works perfectly. It may be the flash-guns are the same model.
I am not get stuck now and I start off taking pictures as what I usually did with Canon EOS film camera.

Just what you miss with a digital camera, witch always gives too less light with the built in flash
Comments about Sunpak Sunpak Digital Camera Flash Adapter Bracket with Built-in Slave:
This item was just what I was looking for I don't care about the slave (which will not work with my camera) I was more interested in a external flash mount and this fits the bill. I do wish it was built a little stronger I have a feeling it won't last long the way I shoot.

Comments about Sunpak Sunpak Digital Camera Flash Adapter Bracket with Built-in Slave:
I now can use three of my flash units that were strictly 35mm type with my Canon A75. Works with a Quanteray 9500 multiple-contact dedicated flash also. To use outdoors, in dark painted rooms, or in auditoriums, place a finger alongside the front-mounted slave sensor to reflect some flash into the sensor. Be sure to check the recommended f-stop of your flash unit and sync with with your digital camera's setting. Not heavily made - a shocker for Sunpak - but you can light up the stage at your kids' school play from 80 feet away with a decent flash unit, vs about 12 feet with your built-in flash.

Lightens a much larger area than the internal flash on my Canon digital camera.
