Product Description

The Macro Ring Flash is a digital flash unit for macro photography that is compatible with most digital Sony SLR camera models. It is dedicated to the PTTL flash system and provides accurate exposures of closeup objects. When shooting at extremely short distances, minor lighting alterations can result in relatively large changes of exposure. the TTL metering of the macro ring flash eliminates the need for grueling exposure calculations.

This item appeared reasonably well made given its relatively low cost but it did not work. While it flashes, I think there was a sync/TTL issue regardless of shutter speed. I tried it in aperture priority, manual and automatic on both my Sony A-850 and A77 cameras.
