Neewer 400W Strobe Light for Canon and Nikon
I am using this strobe with Canon Rebel SLR camera. The package include the strobe itself, the case, the battery and the battery recharger, cap for the strobe and Bowens Mount Adapter. The only thing I am not using is the Bowens Mount Adapter. It can be used to mount a defuser. Defuser was not included in the package and I have not purchased one yet.
The remote trigger and the probes worked with my camera without any problems. By default both were set to channel one and communicated in variety of modes I have tried. My video includes a demonstration of set up and my high speed photography session to generate photos of droplets.
The case and the probe feel very solid. Together they weight 10 pounds 2 oz. The case is lined with foam, the fit is very tight. This is both good and bad. It keeps the strobe very secure once you get it in, but it is hard to put the strobe in without pushing down the foam.
The package includes two manuals. One for the trigger and for the foam. The manual for the trigger is better. The manual for the foam is detailed about some things, but not about others. For example, it does not show how to mount and remove the battery. This is probably the most awkward part of using the strobe. It takes me a few attempts to mount the battery. Removing it is easier. The manual does not mention how to remove the probe's cap - is it a screw top or pushes on? The cap is a push on cap and it is very tight. Initially it did not budge either when I pushing or when I twisted. Eventually I won!
Overall, on the positive side the strobe works well with my camera, the battery lasts a reasonable amount of time. it feels solidly made and I like the protective case. On the negative side, the battery pack is awkward to mount, the foam padded case is a bit tight and it takes time to fit the probe in. The pluses oby far outweigh the minuses.
