I've worked with various flash units over the years, and found this to be more than adequate for indoor photos. I actually use a Nikon that has a built in pop up flash which is strong enough, but doesn't have a hot shoe to attach an additional flash. this unit works GREAT as a slave unit, and fired from any position I placed it in the room. Actually the combination of using both flashes at the same time actually was less intense than my main flash only; and tended to provide a more even light distribution to bring out details that could be washed out. I've been doing photography for over 60 years, and have found Vivitar to be an extremely reliable, dependable, and well priced brand. Newer flash units are VERY expensive, and honestly I haven't found all the extras worth the price. It's the person behind the camera that is most important. I highly recommend this unit to anyone on any level of photography.Vollständige Rezension lesen

First I would like to say the flash works as advertised. The only glitch I've had is it going off in bright sunlight randomly, since I don't use a flash on daylight this isn't an issue. Build quality, I had to glue the hingr together right out of the box. It's held together with a couple stickers with metal brackets stuck to them. I feel as though this thing will fall apart at any moment. I do not believe this flash will not last more than a few months in my camera bag, let alone use.

If you are looking for a budget flash to use then this flash could help you out till you get the money for that name brand flash unit. This unit has no Through The Lens system for use with most DSLR that are on the market today, the build quality isn't the greatest as I have an older model vivitar flash from tho 80's and a side by side comparision shows the older model to be superior in fit and finish in construction. In conclusion if you are new to photography and want to experiment with off the camera flashes this will work if you are looking for a flash that will work with your camera stick with the manufacturer brand of flash units. Last but not least this unit would be great with a small point and shoot digital camera as their flashes are not that big.
Okay, so this is not the best flash kit in the world. but for the money? It is a well balanced product! If you are in unfamiliar with flash kits this is prob a great start because of its weight and fast recycle time. Awesome product for first time users. I'm a first time user with flash kits too and I've already had a lot of fun using it after a day. I recommend getting rechargeable alkaline batteries it will drain your batteries.
First off let me say this, I have not had a lot of chances to use it but the few times I have it has worked fine. That aside I was some what leery of buying it after I had read a number of negative reviews on Amazon but I decided to take a chance on it. One of the reasons is the name (Vivitar) and the price. Some of the negative reviews were complaints about the battery cover coming off or not holding the batteries in place preventing the flash not to function properly. I do not know what those reviewers are doing if they are tossing the flash into the Grand Canyon or what but I have had no problems with the battery cover. The only thing I have done was to remove the rubber strip from the flash bracket but that is all I have done. As for batteries I use duracell quantum batteries because they are the highest rated of all the AA batteries on the market. The instructions leave a lot to be desired but if this 63 year old crazy cat lady can figure it out then anyone should be able to. I am planning to buy a flash diffuser for it and then I am going to buy some colored sheets of cellophane so I can have different colored flash diffusers, I love to experimentwith different lighting and flash colors. The one other thing I am going to buy for the flash is a 6 foot flash cord which will give me more freedom to move it around. The bottom line for me is this, for the money this flash seems to be a very good deal and so far I am happy with it.Vollständige Rezension lesen
