Comments about Adorama Adorama DRF-14 Macro Ring Flash Dedicated for Canon eTTL2 Digital Cameras:

After 7 months the unit is now having dark spots (uneven lighting) I bought this unit in the physical store, [...] getting it instead of a MR-14EX MR-24EX due to the price and it offered the same results as the mr-14ex, I've had my reservations due to the fact of missing some extras like modeling lamp which is very helpful when focusing with an mpe65mm in more than 2x with low light, now after 7 months the unit is not giving an even output and has dead spots, I know flashes might not many years specially under heavy use, but this unit was not abused, I wished I had spend the money on the Canon instead.

Comments about Adorama Adorama DRF-14 Macro Ring Flash Dedicated for Canon eTTL2 Digital Cameras:

I bought a Canon 60mm macro lens and wanted a lower-power ring light to use with it. While the Canon ringlight is wonderful, it is also an expensive item. This one works just fine for me with my Canon XT, XTi and Xsi bodies and is a third the price. The unit recycles fast and gives uniform illumination...it's easy to use...just screw it onto the lens and start shooting.
