Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I appreciate sellers like Digital Goja who offer good products and fast delivery. I needed a flash for a new camera before a wedding shoot in two weeks, so I ordered in plenty of time. The flash arrived in just three days - and safe and sound. I am not new to photography having been around the business for over 30 years. I'm not one to buy top of the line when something else will do the job just as well. I bought this I-TTL flash for a Nikon D5100 to use as a dedicated flash. The bottom line is, it works. I like the standard fold-out diffuser and deflector, the included diffuser cap is a great touch. The heavy duty, well-made protective nylon case is great and has an added feature of a compartment to store the diffuser cap. I had a Nikon SB-600 prior to this Altura flash and side-by-side, the resulting photos (which is what counts in the end) are equal. The big difference seems to be the price. This Altura costs hundreds less and performs as well, if not better. *** UPDATE *** I wanted to update this as I used the flash extensively this past weekend for a wedding. I took over 500 photos and fired the flash at least 400+ times. The flash never faltered once. It recharged between flashes in just a matter of a second or two (using 4 AA Sanyo Eneloop batteries - which didn't need to be changed once during the shooting). I left the flash in i-TTL mode (attached to my Nikon D5100) and it did a great job of illuminating the area. I used the included diffuser cap with the flash and got the best results with the flash angled at 45°. I'm completely satisfied with this flash and highly recommend it.
