I bought this flash mainly for hand-help use for strobing while light painting during long exposure night photography. It wasn’t very good quality, so I returned it.

The picture in the description shows a low profile oval light. The light is quite tall and does not pivot like the description says & does not work on ETTL cameras as described

This is a nice, small flash for Nikon DSLR cameras, but it’s output and lack of wireless-support make it only useful as a better replacement for the built-in pop-up flash. The good news is that it’s better than the pop-up and portable too (not as bulky as the SB-600 & SB-800).
