tried & true by .. Jamila Johnson (DALLAS, TEXAS United States)
the Vivitars never fail me
they have been a great tool to help me better understand lighting
I use em frequently and I have 3 of these !!!
DON'T WASTE MONEY, BUY THESE!!!! by .. Fotoflix (USA)
I bought 2 of these to try and just bought 2 more. AWESOME RESULTS.
- Using these with Canon 5dmk2 and Canon T2i (all off camera, wireless)
- i'd rather spend money on lenses and you know, the more important stuff.
- Remember, all flashes are the same IF YOU KNOW HOW TO USE THEM
- these are manual, so if your a natural lazy piece of *#@@, then you will feel cheated with these.
- high learning curve, but once you do learn, these things are AWESOME!!!
great. by .. Araceli Botello (Houston, Texas)
Great bang for the buck! Make sure to study online and find out how to use properly and you will LOVE it :D
Great product except... 
by .. E. Zee (NYC)
I read in one of the reviews that the PC connector is kind of tight. So when I tried to detach the PC Sync cord that came with the flash, it tore off the socket on my Sony Alpha700. Since I'm already using remote and off camera hot shoe. It's really small matter.
Only took a few shots with the unit. Definitely have enough power for what I need.
Am kind of bummed out about the socket on my Sony. Oh well should've take the hint from the review.
So 4 Stars for the product.
But 5 Stars for the dealer. Free Rechargeable Batteries. What a great deal.
