Fun little 'flashback'

This little guy packs a lot of punch. But honestly, I got it because of how it reminds me of the flashes I used back in the day. Works exactly as expected and at a reasonable price. Definitely recommend if you want that bit of nostalgia.

Good almost perfect

It's a great little flash that i can attach to my Leica m2 or onto my DSLR. Honestly i prefer this one over the lux senior since it feels much stronger. Though it only takes 3A Batteries and it kinda burns through them fast if you use flash alot.

Too high of power, not good flash spread.

Flash spread is pretty narrow, anything wider than 35mm you can definitely see pretty significant falloff. Wish I could go to 1/128 power, but other than that I love it for my film and digital cameras. Something fun to supplement/play with if you already have the v860iii,

A good compromise flash for the Leica

I am using this on a Leica camera, Since on camera flashes on a Leica are either very expensive, or do not work well this is an excellent compromise. Since it doesn?t talk to the camera it is necessary to adjust camera settings whenever there is a change in the location or if you zoom in or out by a large amount. I have not yet used the flash for as a fill flash in sunlight but I am hopeful of good results. However I expect that this would not be a good choice for wedding photo work since it is necessary to adjust camera settings too often. I do love the ?retro? look, it goes great with the Leica!

Not just a nostalgia item

This innovative flash is really useful, not just for those interested in the look of it. It?s really well engineered, the folding mechanism is quite clever. The reflector pedals seem a bit delicate, not sure how well it will hold up under heavy use. I was afraid it would be underpowered, but I found that at ISO 400 it can light up good sized room, and will even work bounced (not on auto) it the ceilings are not too high. The auto exposure function seems accurate. I tested it at f/5.6 at ISO 400. The foldout reflector is still relatively small and thus gives a fairly harsh light on portraits. It?s a little better as far as softness at very close range, such as I use for wide angle environmental portraits. It works well to blend with ambient light at lower shutter speeds. I?m using it mostly off-camera with the compact LightPix T2 radio sync. I gave it 4 rather than 5 stars because I wish they had included TTL and radio sync to make it more useful for serious photographers.

Fun little 'flashback'

Great retro flash

By MICHAEL S.

Just couldn't resist the chance to have a flash which took me back to my childhood. Very straightforward to use. I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Bring a touch of vintage charm to your photography with the Flashpoint FlashBack Senior On-Camera Flash, now available in a stylish pink hue. This compact and lightweight flash unit is a modern reincarnation of the classic Automatic Speedlight from 1972, combined with the iconic reflector flash design from the 1930s. Its unique fan-shaped, 9-blade silver dish reflector harks back to the era when reflectors were the go-to for photographers, offering a nostalgic nod to the past while providing contemporary functionality.

The FlashBack Senior is designed for universal compatibility, featuring a single-pin hot shoe trigger that works with a wide array of camera brands, including Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Panasonic, Olympus, and Pentax, as well as vintage models like Exacta, Contax, Leica, Konica, Linhof, and more. Whether your camera sports a live hot shoe or an old-school sync post, this flash is ready to illuminate your shots.

With a guide number of 46ft / 14m @ISO 100, the FlashBack Senior offers ample lighting power for a variety of shooting conditions, especially in low light scenarios. The non-TTL automation relies on a sensor on the flash body, allowing for accurate exposures once the lens is set to the suggested displayed f-stop. This manual approach to lighting encourages photographers to engage with the fundamentals of flash photography, mastering guide numbers and distance to achieve the perfect exposure.

The FlashBack Senior excels in providing consistent, reliable flash output with 7 user-controlled output levels in manual mode. For those who prefer a more hands-off approach, the automatic mode takes charge of the flash exposure, though the photographer must still select the appropriate f-stop on the camera body or lens.

Coverage is key, and this flash delivers. With a fixed 28mm focal length flash spread, it ensures even lighting across your frame without the need for a zoom head function. It's equipped with an advanced optical receiver that supports both S1 and S2 pre-flash TTL systems triggers, making it a versatile choice for event photography and situations where on-camera flash illumination is essential.

The Flashpoint FlashBack Senior On-Camera Flash is an excellent option for photographers of all levels, from beginners to professionals seeking a reliable backup. Its integrated auto functions and manual features, combined with the substantial light output, make it a natural choice for those who appreciate the blend of retro aesthetics and modern performance.

For Sony camera users, the Shoe adapter WE4711 is required to ensure compatibility and seamless integration with your equipment. Elevate your photography with the Flashpoint FlashBack Senior On-Camera Flash, Pink - a portable, powerful, and decidedly pink addition to your camera's hot shoe.
