I had a SB600 from Nikon I tried to use with my Sony a6000 or Olympus Pl2. Whatever i did, the flash was too bright. I had no problem using the Neewer TT560. I bought two of these and set them up as slaves to the built in flash. Light is light so what isn't to like. I am very pleased with th equality of the construction. These units are very well bult for the money.

I have a pretty significant number of components in my DSLR kit (as listed below) and this bag proved to have adequate space for all the components, with SPACE LEFT FOR MORE!List of components that found a place in this bag:1) Nikon D3300 dslr2) Nikon AF-P 18-55mm Kit lens3) Nikon AF-S 50mm Prime lens4) Nikon AF-P 70-300mm Telephoto lens5) HB-N106 Bayonet Lens hood (for kit lens)6) HB-47 Bayonet Lens hood (for prime lens)7) HB-77 Bayonet Lens hood (for telephoto lens)8) Altura professional dslr cleaning kit (including blower, lens pen, lens brush, lens cleaner bottle and microfiber cloths)9) 1 pc. ND2-ND400 variable ND filter with case10) 1pc. 55mm to 58mm step up filter adapter11) USB OTG Smart card reader12) Mobile OTG cable13) DSLR battery charger14) Nikon WU-1a WiFi adapter for Nikon DSLR15) 1 spare Memory cardAnd trust me when I say this that if organized properly, this bag can still fit a couple of more lenses (I can still fit 1 telephoto lens and 1 prime lens). Refer to my attached photo for evidence.There is provisions to attach my tripod (Snapgear 50inch foldable) at the exterior side of the bag, but I would not use that since it wkuld make it extremely difficult to swing the bag from my back to front (using the sling function) when I need quick access to my camera.Pros:a) This bag is smaller than it looksb) has more space than I need to fit all of abovec) Is extremely well padded from all sidesd) Dividers are of good quality and completely customizable (i.e. we can fix them at any position inside the bag as per our requirement).Still, I took a star away for the following reasons.Cons:a) not water-proofb) No water-proof cover provided eitherc) Chains are of acceptable (but not excellent) quality...felt like needs to be handled with care.

I got this lens a while a go...the first copy was defected but the second one was the right one....is very sharp considering that is not L series...but the focusing system is very fast...I can focus almost instantaneously...is fantastic considering the fact that is 4-5.6 lens....for everyday shots is very good...I was debating between the version of 70-300 L and this one and I'm glad that that i choose this one...considering the price.... now compared to the 70-300 Nikon version is faster and sharper without doubts,, i have Nikon and canon full frames and regarding to the 70-300 range...this canon beat the Nikon one....for sure...

Part 1 - Minolta MD to Sony NEX adapterTechnically, it slightly overshoots infinity but the issue is easily corrected by dialing back the focus ring just a tad --- Not exact but clearly better than not-at-all.Although very light due to extensive aluminum usage, the build quality and fit-and-finish of the adapter is superb. Connections on the lens and camera mount sides are tight and precise --- absolutely, zero slop. The top of the lens release button is flattened making the lens removal process very easy and comfortable.Other notes:- There are no electrical connections so focus and zoom must be done manually on the lens itself- When mounting the lens, turn the adapter clockwise till you hear a "click"- Tested with a Minolta 85mm f/1.7 Rokkor-X MD lens mounted to a Sony a6000 camera-----------------------Part 2 - Nikon Ai to Sony NEX adapterEdit: Based on my positive experience with the Minolta MD adapter, I also purchased the Nikon Ai adapter later.As with the Minolta MD adapter, the Nikon Ai version focuses beyond infinity a tiny bit. Fortunately, the same solution applies - dial back the focus ring and the horizon will become crystal clear. The build quality is impeccable and the finish is smooth and clean of burrs or machine marks. Connections on both sides are taut and precise with zero play.Additional notes for Nikon Ai adapter:- No electrical connections present so focus and zoom must be done manually on the lens.- Unlike the Minolta MD adapter, mounting the lens for Nikon adapter requires a counter-clockwise turn until you hear the "click" of the locking mechanism- Tested with a Nikon Micro Nikkor 55m f/2.8 Ai-S MF lens mounted to a Sony a6000 camera

I do not use these for the UV filter but as a good quality, low cost lens protector. That said:My 1st Tiffen was a 55mm UV Protector I got for the kit lens that came with a Sony a7ii; an FE 28-70. I was so happy with the purchase that I have since purchased three additional Tiffen UV Protection Filters. One is on a Sony E 55-210 I bought used and one is on a Samyang 35mm I bought new. The one I am writing this review for I assume is still on the Sony FE 50mm I bought new but returned and forgot to remove the filter.The point? I treat my lenses, new or used, like I treat a cell phone. That being the phone stays in the box until I have a protective case for them and lenses stay in the box until I have a protective filter to pair them with. And the one I forgot to remove from the returned lens? That is how confident in the Tiffen filters I am. Once I put one on a lens, I never need to think about it again.I have used several brands in several sizes ranging from the cheaper Altura and Polaroid to the mid range Hoya and B & W.Where does Tiffen fit? Well they are no Hoya or B & W but I am no professional photographer. I am an amateur who mostly enjoys street photography when I travel and for my money Tiffen is the best. Yes, you can spend more and get better glass and if you really have reason to worry about ghosting you should look for a higher end lens. That isn't me saying ghosting has been a problem for me. I normally use a lens hood and I think that helps cut down on light reflection. I have noticed some minor issues with it on some shots I have taken in direct bright light conditions but not enough to justify the higher price.I do not stack filters as I haven't had a need to so I can not give an opinion on that topic. I would assume that the risk of ghosting would increase.The short version is this. The Tiffen UV Protection Filter is well made with good quality glass and a metal ring with threading I do not worry will cross thread or strip. They do what I need by protecting my lens. If I was buying a ND or polarizers I might buy a more costly brand but for everyday protection, Tiffen is all I need and the best for my money.Tiffen say it best in their own product description; A small price to pay to protect your investment.

When I read the news of Canon releasing a new Mark II version of this lens the first thought that came to my mind was why? Has Canon lost its mind? Why would you mess around with a lens that has become a staple of nearly every professional Canon user in the world? Since this lens was released in September of 2001 it has earned a reputation as being one of the most rugged and sharpest lenses of its kind. Professional photographer and photo equipment reviewer Ken Rockwell, for example, borrowed this lens from a friend to test who had dropped it off an elephant to the cobblestones nine feet below while shooting in India. Even with that event in its history Ken gave it a stunningly positive review! Many of the most famous photos taken in the last nine years were taken with this lens, including many of the photos that appear in Canon's own sales brochures. In the lens life cycle, if such a thing exists, this lens is hardly an old timer at nine years old. With its proven powerful robust image stabilizer, legendarily sharpness, and tank-like build, one cannot help wonder what the motivation for fixing something that's not broke is. I think the real motivation was keeping "pace" with Nikon and raising prices.Canon is seen more and more as falling behind its nemesis Nikon. With the recent release of Nikon's VR II vibration reduction which supposedly can work up to four stops, Canon had to fire back with a "new" version of the image stabilizer on its own lenses. Thus IS II was born. Needless to say, the new Nikon 70-200 lens retails for over (...) on Amazon as opposed to this "old" Canon lens which sells for about (...). It's expected that new Canon 70-200 2.8L IS II will retail for at least (...) if not more. Is the new lens really worth (...) more than the old lens still being sold? I own this "old" model now for about six months and the only way I can see improvement is if somehow Canon could recreate this same lens, ruggedness and all, at half the weight. Now that would be something worth paying (...) or more for! In reality, the new model will actually weigh 20 grams more than the "old" model. So much for progress!I have shot indoor and outdoor shots both hand held and with my Bogen automatic mono-pod with this lens. In both cases the results have been nothing short of amazing. Clear sharp images almost every time with magnificent color and superb brokeh (blur quality). The image stabilization is first rate and runs hard and strong. Don't be fooled into saving money buying the other versions of this lens. If you ever expect to be free from using a flash and get great results in reasonable natural lighting, this is the lens to buy. If you can't afford to buy this lens then save up for it. If you compromise you may be sorry later.I believe that any changes Canon has made to the new lens will largely be undetectable by professional and amateur photographers alike. The only exception to this is the added weight, increased price, and the very slight ability of the new model to focus closer (about 8"). It's also hard to see how the current powerful image stabilization could be made much better. At some point it all becomes a matter of subject movement and no stabilization system can deal with that other than using higher shutter speeds. That said, the more important question to ask is whether Canon produced a "better" lens at all? Currently we have no test reviews to look at and it is entirely possible that the new lens may actually under perform this "old model". We just don't know at the moment. For my money I would grab this "old" model while you can. Not only is there hardly any risk, but in all likely-hood the after market value of this lens may soon rise.MY UPDATED COMMENTS: Despite some new positive reviews on the new lens, I still doubt that most will notice much of a difference between the new and the old lenses unless they really blow up the image. The old lens produced images that graced some of the top publications worldwide for the last 10 years with nothing but praise. Canon has effectively fooled you all to push though a huge price increase never before seen for an upgrade of the same type lens. It seems the consumer is once again the victim and they don't even realize it!

It is light in weight. I use it to protect my Sony lens.

I actually bought this exact package from the same seller through eBay, but needed to share my experience here too!I've been a "Prosumer" photographer using Nikon for about a decade. About a month ago my Nikon started to lag and quickly became unusable. This deal came to my attention quickly as I began to hear more and more about Sony Mirrorless. Changing from DSLR to Mirrorless was a big decision but changing from Nikon to Sony... I was risking my entire reputation (Not Really). I went ahead and made the purchase and could not possibly be happier! The camera is a BEAST! The Wifi is incredible and something that neither Nikon or Canon could match. Everything I expected and more!Pros:Incredible image qualityFast AF systemPortableWifi is so cool!Extra bag and SD card came with my purchaseLooks like BRAND NEW$400 cheaper than the storeThe lenses included are superb and flawlessCons (if any)AF has a tough time locking on to subjects every once and a while.The camera has to take some time to process after taking a large burst, where nothing can really be done with the cameraThe app store for the camera (Playmemories) has a prehistoric feel to itIn conclusion: If you are looking for a new technology, tired of hauling around tons of DSLR equipment, or just looking for a new hobby, this is the ONLY place you should start.
