PHOTOOLEX Camera Flash Speedlite for Canon Nikon Sony Panasonic Olympus Fujifilm Pentax Sigma Minolta Leica and Other SLR Digital Cameras and Digital Cameras with Single Contact Hot Shoe

The box is highest quality and also the flash is .. came with premium packing looks great and works perfectly with Nikon full frame cameras.

Good piece works really well!

Simple flash seems easy to operate with my Fujifil XT5 and H2S cameras. Great value for money !

At first I could not figure out the different modes and spent considerable time failing to get the flash to work as a slave. Well, it doesn’t have the ability to be used in groups/channels and can only work using infrared. My main flash just would not trigger this flash at all and then suddenly I read why on the internet. Infrared doesn’t work in bright conditions and would you believe it I was sat there near my window at the dining table for half hour and it wouldn’t work. So I moved into the middle of the room where no sun was coming in, and boom it worked!!! It doesn’t need to be in direct line of vision either. I just put it in S1 mode and it fires when my main Godox flash triggers it. I used a transmitter on top of the camera which triggers the main flash on group A channel 26 and when it fires that ‘master’ flash it makes the ‘slave’ (this one I’m reviewing) flash too. There’s no fancy menus. This really is a no frills flash. No lcd screen. You can only change the power of the light and the type of space mode you want; s1 or s2. That’s all. If you want all the bells and whistles then this isn’t a flash for you. If you want a slave unit that simply allows you to adjust power (say for lightning your backdrop) then this is perfect. Comes with a nice bag and some light filters

First off I can't show in video how to use as I don't have a second camera to show the camera I am using this with. At first I was getting completely dark images when using this but realised you have to play around with the settings to get the right balance of light. I was using this for bouncing the flash off the ceiling to avoid flash reflection as I am using it to copy LP sleeves of some very old LPs from the 60s which I will use for CD sleeves as I am recording them. To get a good shot I had to set the flash unit on 1.1 at the far right. It gave just the right amount of light to get a real good copy of the LP sleeve without the flash spoiling the photo with reflection issues which is what you get with the built in flash and which is what you get with glossy picture copying. So far happy with the unit. The last time I did this sort of work was back in the 70s with a Zenith SSL 35mm camera so its nice to use my knowledge with the new digital photography compared to roll film. I also used a tripot and music stand to hold my LP Sleeve still to get a perfect in focus shot. Yes so far so good with this unit. Mines was in a sealed box so it was definitely new and unused. I am just hoping it wont break down after some use like a lot of users on here. If that happens I will be back to update my review.

The Photoolex Mini Camera Flash is a little marvel - super flash strength settings, balanced output, rechargeable and universal connectivity wth most camera brands - I tried it on my Pentax K200 straight out of the box and it fired on various settings without any issues whatsoever. The bonus is it comes with different coloured filters and a white diffuser. It's worth every penny and I highly recommend it!

Photoolex LCD flash speed lite great quality flash with extras like a stand and colour filters. Bargain got in offer.

I added a Speedlite to my Canon kit for low-light shoots and it’s been a game-changer. The bounce and swivel head gives me full control over shadows. Recycle time is fast enough for burst shooting, and the build feels rugged—no overheating, no misfires. Whether I’m capturing detail in a dim workspace or adding fill outdoors, it’s become a go-to tool in my setup
