This is a great product for extending the flash light to a longer distance, especially with a 400mm+ lens. It is easy to connect and dismantle, making it easy to carry.

Great product

I was impressed how far this will throw the light. I have used it for up to 50 ft outside and it worked well

Impressed

This is a great light-weight tool to carry in the camera bag.  Basically folds flat and weighs next to nothing.  A must-have for long range nature photos.  Hope it holds up for years.

Excellent addition to the camera bag

Enables me to light up birds in difficult settings.

Exactly what I expected.

I use this flash extender/better beamer for birding and it works perfectly as fill flash.
It's a bit pricey and not the easiest thing to set. And it doesn't feel robust either but the velcro is enough to keep the lens attached. I would really appreciate if it comes with a pouch/bag and not just cheapy plastic bag.

Better Beamer for Canon430 EX

I have found this flash extender to be very useful
in a variety of shots wildlife in paticular. It is
easy to pack and set up, the biggest benefit for
my use is the lighting of deep shadow's in secluded bird's and animals in dense limb's or
brush. I recommend this item for it has many
use's in the field.
