Review on Canon 600EX RT Speedlite Flash Black by Abhey Raj ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

This flash is not for amateurs who have a high price and lack the technical and creative skills in professional use of such an accessory. I justified its price with just one shoot. More than 200,000 thousand frames have already been shot with this flash in two years (God forbid everyone to shoot like that). I shoot a lot of sports. Gymnastics, boxing, swimming, skiing. "Punching" a large pool in full length. Let someone do something else from 3 to 5 frames per second, when the emerging athlete needs to be captured in motion with the rate of fire of the flash and camera, and even at a great distance. By the way, I shoot only Canon 7D with "white" lenses: Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM and Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L USM. Batteries are such a small thing. I always have no less than 5 sets of them with me, and everything is only for 2850 - 2700 A / h. And shooting a wedding with such a flash is quite simple when you know exactly its technical capabilities and keep the main shooting modes in your head. The only drawback is that they did not come up with such a glass for this flash so that it would not melt from heating during high-speed shooting. But it is rare that someone shoots so much so that the flash and the glass heat up. Can you imagine if I shoot an event that lasts 3 hours? On my Canon 7D, more than 300,000 frames have already been shot in 2 years!

Pros
  • A powerful enough flash, many modes, it is possible to shoot in automatic modes and adjust everything for yourself in manual settings. I freely shoot in multi mode with a high rate of fire and at a focal length of up to 200, with such a focus I freely punch through a distance of 50-70 meters. No earlier flash from canon could do this.
Cons
  • not revealed yet (I’ve been renting for two years)
