from Photo and Video, Chc Summary: This is the perfect small flash. There is almost nothing that can go wrong with it and when you are working in a tricky environment that is exactly what you require. My SB23 is usually left connected to an SC17 sync cord to which I have attached a wrist strap. The flash hangs from my wrist up until the point I am ready to shoot, then in a quick flick of the wrist the unit is in my hand, normally held off to one side to create some modelling on the subject. Velcro around the head of the unit is used to attach polycarbonate diffuser material so that you can use wider lenses as required. This flash is incredibly simple to use and ideal for modifying in simple ways to create images that you would not normally get from an on camera flash of larger propotions. If you get the chance to buy one of these units grab it. Strengths: Small, Lightweight, One switch controls all, excellent recyclye time (1.5 seconds typical from full recharge). Weaknesses: None. Similar Products Used: SB24 / SB25 / SB26 / Metz 45s etc. Customer Service: Never had any problems with the unit.
