Both fall apart

When I finally took them to the field, the metal shoe was coming loose from the plastic case, the small screws holding it snapped off and the screws were also vibrating. back, fall to the ground, are never found again because they are so small. They had to add glue or something to the threads.

Pros
  • Flash accessory
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Fine, but expect them to need repairs and adjustments before use.

They are good but you should expect them to need repairing and adjustment before use. I would suggest applying thread lock (Loctite) to the small screws that hold the shoes together. I also adjusted the ears. So the flash is slightly looser to allow the pin to lock securely in the hole. Also, one of them had mis-stamped the nib, so I had to put it down to make it work.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Not sure

I received a complete and error-free replacement set, but I was wrong. After $500 Canon600exrt2 I've learned my lesson and I hope you will before it's too late. The problem is the tiny pin-sized screws that hold the silver cold shoe to the black mount, they are absolute junk and can't support the weight of the

Pros
  • Shoe mounts
Cons
  • Very expensive
