Lux Junior Retro Camera Flash | 7 Levels Power 1/1-1/64, Godox Small Flash for Sony Canon Fujifilm Nikon Olympus Cameras, S1/S2 Optical Control, A/M Mode

This product looks good, but problem is now i have to purchase 2 batary and charger. Dont buy it.

This Godox retro flash lux junior is a fun little flash! It is very lightweight yet made with sturdy hard plastic. Takes two aaa batteries and works on all brands of cameras since it use a simple single point hotshoe contact. I have the Sony A1 and i found that this flash does not work with the electronic shutter. I had to use mechanical shutter to trigger this flash. So if you have one of those advance flash ship cameras that triggers flash using electronic shutter, you know what to do :) This flash has simple control, practically speaking, the power output dial is all you need to worry about. The flash itself doesn’t tilt nor pivot, it locks onto the shoes shoe via a turn lock mechanism and gives a retro direct flash look. Just like the name suggest, it is a retro style flash. I can see people adding this flash on top of their retro style camera and finishing the look along with retro style photos!

I needed a decent on camera flash, but didn't want to spend hundreds on a flash. After some looking around on the internet and YT, I found this and it's more powerful brother. I went for the smaller one as I just needed something to give me just enough of a burst of flash and still be compact on the camera if not needed all the time.

This flash is great, and performs reliably enough for any for-fun/hobbyist/casual usage. I've been very happy with it taking pictures when I'm spending time with friends, at weddings (as a guest), around the house, etc. If you know what you're doing, you can get good results with this. The automatic metering has been quite reliable, as long as you're aware that it is exposing for whatever is dead ahead of it, so you need to have your subject centered. Manual metering has worked exactly as I expect, but I rarely use it because I've had a lot of success with the auto metering. I use this with my film cameras, and so far have no complaints. I've also used it a couple of time with modern mirrorless cameras, and it's been fine for that too. Obviously for professional work I have a proper TTL flash on a digital camera, and a larger, more powerful manual flash for my film cameras. I wouldn't recommend this flash for that sort of work, but if I'm taking photos for fun, this is the flash I take with me. Attached are a few photos on B&W 35mm film, all taken with the auto-metering mode at the suggested settings (ISO 100 film, f/2.8)

The little fella works as advertised, is easy to stow away in your camera bag and just plain works.

Does not work for full frame cameras using longer lens (24-70) , the flash gets cut off and creates a blur shadow in the photo. If I had a smaller compact camera, would have worked great.
