Neewer NW565EX E-TTL Slave Flash Speedlite with Flash Diffuser for Canon 5D Mark III,5D Mark II,7D,30D,40D,50D,300D,350D,400D,500D,550D,600D,700D,1000D,1100D and Other Canon DSLR Cameras

This is the best flash for the price and although there are not any video reviews of the flash coz it just came out I bought it by seeing at Yongnuo 565ex video reviews and its the same thing. It has all the stuff and features you need with a nice big backlit LCD. Very good for a primary flash and on camera flash. I take it every where with as it has a very nice hard carrying case which I attach to my camera bad which a hook. Full wireless ettl capabilities with Focus assist laser that projects a doted pattern which makes it effortless to focus in dark situations. Fast recharge cycle at full power while using rechargeable ion 4000 Duracell which are a pack of 8 AA and 4 AAA and are awesome for my two flashes and triggers. Also compatible with Nikon ettl wireless system so basically you dnt need any triggers for off camera usage but you might need trigger if you want to use this inside a soft-box.I got Neewer 1 trigger and 2 receivers for $20 so its something you should have all the time. The hard diffuser is very nice and practical and perform way better than the built-in slide out diffuser.

I have never used an external Flash before. I bought this to pair with my old Canon T3 Rebel camera. I advise beginners to read or watch tutorials to learn how to use this. The shoe mount worked perfectly. Although it does have E-TTL capabilities I found it was easier and preferable to just use it in manual mode anyway. So I guess I could have saved money and purchased a different, less expensive model that didn't have E-TTL but I'm glad I have the option in case I ever want it.

If you are looking at this item, then like me you are probably a "budget conscious" photo enthusiast. This isn't my first Neewer flash unit, I started with the NW680 model, but this model is far better for not much more money. I bought these (I liked the first one so much I bought a second) after upgrading my camera from a T3 to a 70D, which supports off camera TTL. These units are great, the 70D (and a few other models) can use the pop up flash to wirelessly trigger and control these units remotely in either manual or TTL mode. They support multi-channel operation, you can ratio the output, etc. I've never spent the money on Canon branded strobes, but I can only imagine these are almost as good. The one thing they lack is the ability to be the master if mounted on the hot-shoe itself (at least in TTL mode). I think the Canon versions can. Oh, and high-speed sync is missing as well. That's the main reason I kept the NW680.Now the really surprising bonus to this particular flash unit seems to be that it works very well on the 70D as a bounce flash mounted on the hot-shoe. If you own a 70D and have noticed under-exposed pictures when bouncing the flash, or if you don't own a 70D because of all the negative reviews you read about that "bug", then this a very cheap solution. I actually thought that maybe I just got a "hot" unit that over-exposed when I first noticed how much better the exposures were when bounced, but when I got the second one it confirmed to me that this is normal. They won't all be perfect, as I get different performance with different lenses and focal lengths, but overall this flash is a huge improvement.Oh, and with off camera TTL mode, there seems to be much better exposure results when bounced as compared to when bounced from the hot shoe. The ability to control multiple strobes from the camera makes this setup great for when you need room filling bounce flash (great for pictures of the kids when indoors). This unit is also Nikon compatible, in case you shoot Nikon. Hope this review helps, especially for those 70D owners who are looking for a solution.

Ok, I'll just start off by saying I'm no professional. Also since I am a guy, when the instructions to this flash immediately got lost, I obviously couldn't ask for directions on how to use it, or for help to find the original instructions. So I have been just figuring this flash out by trial and error. But surprisingly enough I have actually been getting stellar results with it.I have a fairly entry level DSLR a Canon T4i, and I have always disliked using the onboard flash because it was just so harsh, it really just didn't work good in almost any situation. So I was a little hesitant to buy an external flash, but I had a certain photographic situation come up that made it unavoidable. So I bit the bullet and based on the price and reviews I picked up this one. And so far it has been money well spent. Like I said I have been using this by the trial and error method but fortunately I am shooting rooms with no people so I don't mind taking the extra time to play with settings and tweak things to get the desired result.So far I have been absolutely blown away by the quality of this flash, especially considering how inexpensive it was. I'm fairly still new to the photography scene but for something to start out to learn how to take flash photography I couldn't be happier with it. I'd like to think that someday I will be able to justify buying more high end bodies, lenses, and flashes. But for someone just starting out and on a tight budget this flash is perfect. So far the only thing that I have not been able to work out is how to trigger it via the camera's infrared sender. I'm not sure if there is some setting that I am missing or if it is just not something that can be done with the combination of my camera and this flash.Overall from my perspective I would give this a solid 5/5. I couldn't tell you what the Canon version that costs like 5 times as much can do that this one can't but for me this is exactly what I needed and it didn't break the bank. I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to recommend this to anyone in a similar situation.

Light is good, it unfortunately EATS batteries like crazy. I mean, I need to replace 3 or 4 batteries every 20 minutes of continuous ued use.

È il mio primo flash e sono super contenta di aver finalmente fatto questo acquisto. Per quello che ho provato, fa il suo egregio lavoro, anche in una stanza molto buia. Per €52,50 credo sia un ottimo prezzo. L'unica pecca è che è un po' pesante, anche rispetto alla mia Canon eos 200d per il resto sono più che soddisfatta. Ha tante funzionalità che devo ancora imparare bene, nel frattempo c'è una comoda modalità TTL che mi da una mano.Due sono i motivi principali che mi hanno portato a scegliere questo flash Neewer NW-565EX rispetto agli altri flash economici di amazon (parlo dei flash che troviamo sotto i €50):1) Avere la modalità TTL, essendo il mio primo flash, mi sembrava utile avere una modalità automatica, principalmente per capire il meccanismo;2) Il numero guida, questo ce l'ha a 58, mentre gli altri erano tutti sul 38, quindi è un po' più luminoso e potente.Ruota bene, sia in orizzontale che verticale. Nella confezione troviamo una bella custodia, un mini stand, un piccolo diffusore, il manuale (solo inglese e cinese) e naturalmente il flash.

Affordable, and does the job BUT flash will not fire as frequently & needs to cool down between shots. batteries WILL overheat so be careful with that

This item was purchased to use with a Canon 750D DSLR for taking photos at events, parties and within a photo booth. The item is a drastic improvement over the standard built in flash that many cameras have.I tend to use the auto (ETTL) mode most often and once you adjust a few parameters within the camera to achieve the desired exposure then it's pretty easy sailing.After a few months of use I've experienced zero issues. It feels well built apart from the battery compartment door which does seem a little less sturdy than would be ideal. I try to use good quality batteries and get good results from doing so. I've managed to do entire nights of photos (300+) shots, all with flash, without needing to change batteries, but the refresh time does start to slow when the batteries are getting tired. Even then - I've changed the batteries for the next job out of precaution rather than them being completely flat.The accessories are a nice touch. The pouch is basic but offers reasonable protection and has a velcro fastening to allow attachment to your camera bag or such. The diffuser is a very tight fit but once it's on it works very effectively.All in all - a very usable item and a great price in comparison to a main brand equivalent.

Recibí este flash el día de ayer Domingo, y en ese momento comencé a probarlo y la verdad me encanto como trabaja, la medición TTL funciona correctamente con las 2 cámaras canon con que lo probé (Rebel 3ti y 70D) es rápido en la carga, se sincroniza correctamente con la cámara y tiene funciones personalizadas que son muy útiles, la parte inalámbrica funciona bien (lo probé como esclavo), buena potencia y incluye su difusor.En contra te puedo decir que el plástico con el que esta construido se ve algo corriente por lo que hay que manipularlo con cuidado ya que siento que se va romper, pero por el precio no esta nada mal.

Llevo 30 años haciendo fotos. Hasta ahora, después de tener y usar muchos flashes, nunca había visto uno con semejante relación calidad/prestaciones/precio. Bastante potencia, distintos modos, el TTL funciona bien, el manual se usa con mucha facilidad, el cabezal permite rebotes de luz en casi todos los ángulos y tiene buen tacto, y tras unos 1000 disparos no he tenido ningún problema de calentamiento. No he podido hacer compensación de la exposición del flash a través de la cámara (como hago con el flash integrado de esta), es una Canon EOS 50D, pero no es problema, el flash ofrece control y posibilidades de ajustar la exposición con el compensador manual, comodísimo. La pantalla es muy legible, las pilas duran bastante y el tiempo de recarga tras cada disparo es corto. Los acabados del flash son muy buenos, mejores que los de flashes de bastante más precio que he tenido en la mano, de marcas más reconocidas incluso. He tenino flashes de marcas de "alta alcurnia" que me han salido rana, con materiales algo más toscos que este Neewer y con TTL estropeado al año de comprarlo, y otras "gracias"...Otros me han salido buenos, lógicamente. Este Neewer hasta ahora, tras 4 meses y más de 1000 disparos, va perfecto; la primera sensación al sacarlo de la funda fue muy buena, de solidez; TODO le funciona bien y no se calienta...No le veo pegas. Son unos pocos euros para un flash que ofrece todo esto y más. No es que merezca la pena, es que hasta hace pocos años pensar en tener un flash así en tu cámara era ciencia ficción a no ser que gastases varias veces más dinero.
