Enhance your lighting options with this Bower SFD328 flash that features 0-90° bounce rotation and 0-270° horizontal swivel for versatile positioning. The built-in slave flash enables use with cameras with or without built-in flash capability.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I would only recommend this to the very beginner who wants to get into flash photography, but if you ever plan to do anything serious with it, you should get one that offers manual mode. It technically can be used as an off camera flash, but it is not a good idea, as you can not adjust the power. With new batteries the recycling takes about 1-2 seconds, but it can get as low as 7 seconds when the batteries get drained. The shoe mount is very plasticky and feels like it could break off any moment. The 270 degree rotation it does is good though. Overall I think it could help you learn about how flash photography works and what you need from the next flash you buy.
What's great about it: Good price
What's not so great: No manual mode
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
