I love macro photography and recently brought a regular speedlight (albeit a compact one) so that I could take it around with me; a bit of a pain, if I'm honest, with having the diffuser on it and trying to get the best light. Then I noticed this one a month after, and it was even cheaper, so I thought I would try it.I actually have 2 macro lenses over the years, a Nikon F mount and a Nikon Z mount, and there is an important thing you need to do with the Z mount lens; do not mount the flash to the lens part, which moves in and out, attach it with a larger adapter to the outer case. This is because it will put undue pressure on the lens and can result in lens motor failure. I did a lot of research on that, so I thought you should know.Loved the fact that it came with so many adapters, as I was a bit worried I was going to have to find some to fit my lenses.The light is beautifully even that comes out of it and really makes your picture pop, and the cable to the main unit is soft and flexible and doesn't pull against front. Very simple controls on the back to adjust the power, and so far, I've only needed the lowest setting for macro work, although I'm sure the higher setting will come in useful for portraits (not tried that yet).

Perfect fit for Tamron lenses I am trying to protect.

This UV filter has been a great addition to my Tamron 35mm for my sony. This filter is definitely more of a protector than a modifier at least in my use case, it helps to protect the exposed focusing mechanism of the lens and makes sure that no dust or particulates get into the lens. Overall I would say that this is a great filter to put on any lens as it adds a barrier between the front element and the world, and I didn't notice any negative effects on image quality by having this filter on the lens.

A little fragile feeling. Using a Sony a6100 with a Tamron 17-70 which is under the max payload and it’s scary to have the arm extended. Feels like it’ll snap at any moment. It’s very good as a mini tripod without extending.

I bought this filter for my Tamron 17-28mm e-mount lens and love it. I haven't noticed any major color distortion and the sharpness doesn't seem to be affected at all either. The low profile seems to negate most vignetting you may encounter, but it does show up (unsurprisingly) if you stack this with another filter like a CPL. The gold ring is a nice touch too. I would absolutely buy these again as you get great results for the money.

Love the macro on this lens combo! Very easy to mount on any camera!

I bought this product to use in macro photography. I am using the Tamron 180mm lens with a 2x adapter. As such without a flash, it would be very difficult handheld. I found in the past that the small flash alone caused specular highlights on the insects, however, with this product attached to the flash the light source is that much bigger and the lighting is much smoother. I am sure there are better more expensive options but this works well for my needs and I am happy with the results.

Fits well on my Tamron lens. I lost my tamron cap so I just replaced it with this and it works awesomely.
