Comments about Better Beamer The Flash X-Tender (Better Beamer) FX-6 Flash Output Booster for Nikon SB-900 Flash:
I used it on my SB900 as fill flash for bird images with a 400mm manual focus Nikon and it did a great job of filling in with rear sun lit birds. A little worried about the durability of the velcro on the lense. Still well worth the price if you need to project you flash further than the capability of the flash.

Comments about Better Beamer The Flash X-Tender (Better Beamer) FX-6 Flash Output Booster for Nikon SB-900 Flash:
This is an amazing product, you would not think that something so simple can be so effective but it certainly is. I use it to shoot birds with my 500mm F/4 Nikkor lens. It makes a big difference when the light is anywhere except right behind you. This is a small, lightweight product that is quite durable. Make sure the flash is mounted at least 12 inches from the lens...to prevent the flash eyes. I use it primary for fill but it works however you need it to at long range.

Comments about Better Beamer The Flash X-Tender (Better Beamer) FX-6 Flash Output Booster for Nikon SB-900 Flash:
I shoot birds in early morning light around the wildlife drive at Ding Darling refuge in Sanibel Island, Florida. The Beamer is a great product that can turn a trash picture into a keeper. Without raising the ISO to a noise producing level, the beamer allows me to throw light into the shodows hiding a Green Heron or Yellow crown night heron with ease. It allows higher shutter speeds insuring sharp details. On any morning you see the serious photographers all using beamers. It assembels quickly, attaches to your flash easly, and stores flat in your camera bag. A well designed, light product, that works.
