The best options are out there.

I've had this flash for a little over 4 years. It worked fine the whole time. I only use it as a second flash off camera, mainly for weddings, so it doesn't get much use (compared to my main flash). I would use it as the main flash but the head doesn't work. not as eloquent as I like. It doesn't have the high articulation angle of other flashes, so I find it limiting when using the camera. This week I noticed that the outer case has started to melt due to the flash fire. Of course it's been 4 years, but I regularly only flash at 1/64 power so the plastic doesn't melt. There are better ways.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Not bad
