5 out of 5 stars The One must have   March 9, 2005
 12 out of 13 found this review helpful

I use this flash with my V1. I works ok on the auto mode. Mode A using the camera light meter to control the flash. Mode B the flash itself provides the light meter. Both light meter works very well for general use but tend to over expose in dark area and under expose when using as fill flash ( my favorite shots). My favorite part about this flash is the manual mode which you can manualy set the intensity of the light output from 1/1 (full power)1/2 (50% power) to 1/32 (least intensity) so you can shoot with any aperture prefered, a big improvement from the old 1000 series (always fire at 100% and no TTL control). I give this one a 5 star because it served my purposes. ( try this shot: manual mode F7.2/ Shuttle 1/80 / manual mode on the flash set at 1/8 power/ shot you favorite model with the sun on his (her) back)


4 out of 5 stars Exellent, but...   November 15, 2004

I use this flash with a DSC-F828, great twin, but I have an important dislike, the 4 AA batterys are too poor like surce of energy and meke the time between shots too long, specialy in crutial moments. I'm really happy with this product, but this problem make me take one star away.

What an excellent addition to the DSC-F828! For a flash with all these features it is a bargain. The focus assist lamp works great even in low light. The bounce ability gives your indoor shots the look of soft natural light. The 40ft plus distance is great. The modeling function is an added plus. What more could you ask for in an external flash. Why only 4 stars for such a fantastic flash? The thing sucks up batteries like there's no tomorrow. Get some rechargeable AA Ni-MH batteries, a charger and your set.

I use it on my Mavica CD500 and on my wife's DSC-V1 and we are both very pleased with it. Because it communicates with the camera, it fires a pre-flash to determine ideal exposure and then takes the shot. The pictures look like if they were taken during daytime, not with a centered, white "burn" that makes the picture more bidimensional. It's strong enough that when used during daylight it fills the shadows (i.e. under the eyes).


5 out of 5 stars A Must Have Accessory for the Sony DSC-F828   January 12, 2004

This is an excellent flash. The built-in flash on the F828 is okay, but the HVLF32X flash vastly improves the quality of indoor and evening shots. I can tilt the flash up and use the built-in diffuser to backlight an entire living room, yet keep the subjects in the foreground properly exposed. Group shots turn out great as the light is bright and spreads out wide and even. This flash can illuminate an entire living room, or put light on close ups with just the proper exposure. A great convenience is that when this flash is attached to the F828, the F828 automatically switches to an external flash mode and disables the built-in flash. No need to fumble with the settings. Another convenience is that it uses easy to find and stock AA batteries.
