I have researched for months and came to the conclusion that the Hensel units were the best combination of price, performance and durability. Unlike others witha digital readout, the Hensel uses a dial to with digital readout to control output. Thus a change is much faster than using the buttons of competing units. A 300W modeling light makes a huge difference in using this unit in a large softbox. You can actually shoot with the modeling lamp alone. The tilt mechanism is very secure unlike White Lightning that loosens up over time. This has a very large clamping area that ensures a stable position even when using large light modifiers. The attachment system for speed rings is very smooth and secure. Very unlikely that a modifier will fall off. Output is very consistent. Other manufacturers I have used can vary as much as a half stop in consecutive flashes. Overall a very well made unit that clearly shows development by professionals. None of the homemade feel of many domestic units.
