3.0 out of 5 stars Misfires a lot. June 27, 2012
First, I didn't buy it from Amazon, I use a local store (big mistake)

I bought it in local Houston camera and tried there once. It fired.
CAme home and tried, What??? no flash.

I panicked and try the test button and fired again , tried with the camera and didn't fire, tried the test button several times no luck until I press like 10 times.

Well that is the story in a nutshell, it misfires all over. The best light I have own, but It doesn't work all the time.

Several entries in internet about the same problem.

Buy from a reputable dealer as Amazon or other, because you will have to return it until you get a good one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic light, very versatile June 24, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
I use this along with the Profoto Acute 2r 2400 box and typically one (sometimes two) 2-D4 flash head(s) and it works fantastically! Excellent for macro/micro product photography as well as portraits. Definitely powerful enough to be used as a key light. Tripod and camera attachments make this flash very versatile, although it is a bit heavy when attached to the front of a camera (currently use Nikon D3 ~ 5.5 lbs + weight of light = not fun to drop on your face). The only thing I wish for is a less powerful version of this flash that I can power from my hotshoe so I could take it everywhere!!
