General Comments
I've had the pleasure of owning and using two. One with an F801 and one with an F90. On the whole the results are excellent but I've been let down several times by dodgy internal electrics on both units which result in the power turning off unexpectedly. Only thing that brings it back is twisting the head side to side. One unit has recently packed up entirely, though it has seen rather heavy use, from fashion shows to sports photography. Fill flash is excellent and result have been faultless with the exception of outdoor shots of people at night, where (without being able to utilise the AF-D lense capability) it tends to overexpose any nearby subject. An SB-25/6/8 would solve this problem.
