MARA R : Will this work with the new Nikon D500?PAUL S. G : Not 100% sure. I have used with Nikon D810. If they have the same hot shoe I would assume it would work. Hope somebody gives you the 100% answer.

Weird led blinking randomly on the back panel.

The light output and the capacity to shoot HSS was a great plus on this flash. It's very easy to use, but for some reason on my cameras the lights of the back panel were going crazy. I see that on another video online and whe the Godox/Flashpoint X system was released I replaced it. That was only my experience.

Shoddy Design

I would not recommend this flash for sony users at all. The hotshoe mount which is plastic can be easily damage and the two sticks that holds the flash in place is not a very good design. The flash slide back and forth on my hot shoe. Terrible design to hold a flash in place to make a solid connection.

Not a pro flash

These are not reliable and are overpriced for a flash that misfires!

Great when it works

Fails to trigger fire at least half of the time. I have two different sets of Di700A and Air 1 Commander and both encounters the same problem. It can be 3-5ft away from you without anything obstructing and still fails to fire almost 30-50%. Note this only happens outdoors. Indoors it fires great. I am not sure what's about outdoors it just too often not register the fire. Kind of made pointless as my intend purpose is to use it primary outdoors.

This flash works as described

I got this flash in hope to use its radio feature and get a receiver latter to use with my Sony HVL-f43AM since the NIssin Air R is not available. I had to return it because the build quality din't look so good to me compared to my Sony lash, and it can only be optical slave if you want to use that option. The flash power is good and consistent. The user interface look primitive and as many people said it is easy, I find it to the contrary because you have to remember what the led indicators mean. I got the Phottix Mitros + instead which is $100 more expensive without the separate radio trigger but I am glad I did.

How many ways can you say amazing ordered my kit to fit my Sony A 6000 could not ask for more performance works so well with the air commander. Very pleased I would recommend this kit no matter what camera brand they shot.

Let's Do 8000

This is undoubtedly the best flash and trigger for the Sony A7 series camera for the money. Easy wireless setup. Radio controlled off camera HSS to 1/18000. The most accurate TTL mode I have ever used. All the features at half the price of manufactures flashes.

Easy to use!!

I dropped my Nikon SB800 and had another shoot the next day. The Nissin Di700 was less than the repair of the Nikon. And guess what...I absolutely love the Nissin. The controls are so simple and straight forward. I've used it in commander mode, on the camera, and with wireless triggers. Smooth shots. I'd definitely buy another one!

Nissin Commander Air 1 can control 3 groups of Nissin Flash Di700A with the user friendly operation panel and variety function, it would be more convenient for the user.
