Review on πŸ“Έ Metz MZ 36356S 36 AF-5 ADI Flash Mode: Enhance Your Sony Digital Camera's Photography Experience by Kim Palmer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great little flash suitable for photography and photography

I ordered this to use with my new Sony NEX-7 camera. I wanted a small flash with a high enough guide number to give a good reflective flash and spread the light for wide angle use in group shots. As I have other more powerful and larger flashes for my larger cameras, I wanted smaller size and weight above all, but I did NOT want to upgrade to a limited cycle, slow recycling 2 battery flash. I am pleased to report that this Metz met and exceeded all of my expectations. It works very well and is a lot cheaper than many other alternatives, including Sony's small and flimsy external flash (the HVL20, which costs $20 more than the Metz). As far as I know, it's ideal for NEX-7. . Excellent even exposure with direct and bounce flash.
