Review on Enhance Your Canon DSLR Experience with the Canon Speedlite 430EX II Flash - White Box, New! by Qu Hiu ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It was a reasonable purchase, I will order more.

the most reliable for the money, but less reliable and cheaper but higher in power, so this is a compromise. Flash for a score of 5 should not have to compromise. If you turn back the time, I would compare it with the Yangnow 580 before buying. but it’s quite possible, I wouldn’t like it either, I don’t know))) but it also has TTL-II (this is very important). In any case, I'm happy with the flash. I made a white Velcro card myself.

Pros
  • -quality. As they say -more accurate exposure than analogues (as they say) (but there really are no overexposures)
Cons
  • - very much play both the head and the mount (for everyone) it is felt and at least unpleasant - recessed buttons which are sooo tricky and wild! It is inconvenient to press - a huge waste of time ! this is either the inadequacy of the manufacturer or a cold calculation (so that they buy 580 (600) there is a convenient wheel. ("inadequacy" I put it mildly) -to the right, the head turns only 90 degrees, and the most popular angles (from 90 to 180 degrees BACK!) are not available . only on the left. (these angles are really in demand both indoors and with a reflector outdoors (when someone is holding a reflector) that is, if the flash head is turned only 90 degrees to the right (you can’t turn back further), then the reflected light falls on the face too sideways. (only half of the face is illuminated in the end). But! -power 43 . with an interference fit, you can say that sometimes it’s not enough (even in rooms with just high ceilings, but if we talk about shooting against the sun in high-speed sync mode, then it’s necessary more. But even 600 may not be enough there) - head lock button is terrible -no white card, which is very necessary. Have to attach self-made
