But even when you unpack the first disappointment: The flash comes without bag, pouch or any other form of protection. He looks as if it would have needed because the casing acts processed cheaply and simply. Even otherwise, there is no accessory such as a reflector card or a softbox. Only a pull-out wide-angle diffuser, but also does not cover the whole reflector. The foot is also made of cheap plastic, about sitting for fixing a large, sharp-edged plastic knurled wheel.

Flashed against a white wall, with a 27mm pancake lens on the camera (thus excluding all shading by the lens) shows the particularly clear. The use of the lens brings a slight improvement, but it is not the intention, since the power is reduced.
