I love these safety harnesses. Let me tell you a quick story. I just completed an event shoot and was walking out of the event with my camera strapped to my Black Rapid camera strap (which I love) and BANG. There was my camera laying in the street. OH MY GOD.....MY CAMERA. WTF.....

Luckily, I had a cheap lens with an attached filter attached at the time. The front of the lens was cracked when you would normally screw on the filter. My poor lens was never the same again. And my d750 was OKAY. No harm, no foul. I learned an important lesson that day.

NO. I did not blame my Black Rapid strap. I felt the camera spinning around when I wasn't holding it. It was my fault.

I purchased these speed lights for a special project I was working on (a real estate shoot) and needed to light up specific areas of a room. These worked great as manual non-ttl speed lights. I have also used these for small photo shoots as well.

For a test flash, press the test button; After use, press the ON/OFF to OFF to power off; Lighting Times: 100-1500 times ( AA alkaline batteries used); Red charging indicator lamp flickers in every 1s; it indicates low battery

When shooting, adjust the flash power and press the camera shutter,the flash light will flash under the camera synchronous signal.S1 Mode is applicable for slave flash in order to create many lighting effects. It is respectively applicable for manual flash environment. When the flash is S1 mode, it will fire synchronously when the master flash fires, comparable with the effect by the use of radio trigger.S2 Mode is applicable for slave flash in order to create many lighting effects. It is respectively applicable for TTL flash environment. The flash unit won't flash synchronously with the first flash but the second flash from the master flash.
