Great light - - Shoe mount flashes

Great - works as advertised - on my Sony NEX7 camera. I can't talk - wish my head would turn - to any other app for portrait work. but the light is good and strong - i can't remember the guide number - i think you can find it online in the instruction manual.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Light. Excellent lighting. Easy to use.

Using NEX-7 with Zeiss 16-70: Very good exposure and easy pan/zoom. ADI (similar to TTL) works great and produces an even and comfortable light. However, the battery is disappointing: a very shaky flap. Argued between this and Sony HVLMi. I went for the Metz prize and its larger lead number - glad I did, very pleased so far. By the way, the adapter for NEX-7 is not required.

Pros
  • Excellent overall quality
Cons
  • Hard to say

The flash itself is fine, but don't count on the manufacturer discount when you buy something from Revain. They put some stickers on the UPC code on the box. The UPC code was needed to get the $30 rebate and Manfrotto/Metz didn't accept mine even though I sent the entire bottom flap of the box. You could see there was a UPC code under the labels but they said they couldn't tamper with it so no discounts for me.

Pros
  • special offer
Cons
  • unreliable

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…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Only available in black

Light bright best in camera and photo

I wasn't sure if this would work on the Sony a57 without an adapter, especially as none of the reviewers/buyers here have tried this model so I'm crossed my fingers and bought it. Fits without an adapter. I took a few photos with it and it works fine. The recharge time between charges is between 1/2 second and 1 second. Build quality is excellent despite being lightweight. It has an outer cone that simply snaps into place and the head rises to 3 positions in height and tilts back and forth to…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish
