The flash can be operated intuitively, the TTL function properly.
He has power more than enough for a compact flash. (In my case Eneloop NiMH battery)
Housing and processing are not so bad. The display is easy to read and is, for some fixed set seconds, backlit. The additional modes are very large for a compact flash: M / strobe / S1 / S2. The zoom range to 180mm is unusually large but, in my opinion, not very effective. Anyway 200mm lenses are up to 8m and 200 F5.6 well lit at ISO. That to me is more than just ok. The enclosed pedestal stands securely in any position. The latching or clamping of the adjustable head keeps good enough to not fall even with an attached diffuser (small softbox). An internal hinged diffuser the zoom can automatically go to Wide when using, as well as a small white reflector disk for indirectly flashed Portraits is, with installed. (Their effectiveness is, of course, as with any flash with these gadgets, arguably.) A powerful, discreet red AF assist light helps you to focus.
In sum, a very universal flash for little money!
But not all is well:
- For a Aufsteckblitz enormous. As you can well want to opt for another device.
- The diffuser seems too small for the lens and the spring that holds it in place is too weak. The rattles.
- And his white reflector disc not remain in position. At 90 ° it slips back almost alone.
- The S1 / S2 mode has a sensor with a very small detection angle. It should always be used the flexibility of the flash to always turn the sensor towards Masterbliz. Fortunately this goes.
Conclusion: strong buy recommendation for hobby's
