- widget:This flash is my new work horse! Very powerful, and a high refresh rate. Added advantage is the rechargeable batteries, but only because I already owned the charger (not included). Make sure you buy at least one extra battery, especially if you shoot events.
It is heavier and a bit bulkier than most previous speedlites I have owned, but that was to be expected, considering the extra power. Overall, great flash at a fantastic price.
