Bower Digital Slave Flash SF 328AZ > 4 OLYMUPS

I have a Dimage Z3 with a reasonable built-in flash, but still need another flash for other situations. I was very enthusiastic to find this one on Amazon. And after reading your reviews, I decided to buy one. The shipping was quick b/c I got it in three days. However, since my z3 hotshoe does not fit the flash, I have to use the wireless connection. The instructions about setting up the connection are straight forward and the flash worked like a charm after the set up. I put it in different angles, close and away from my camera and it worked every time. Remember to move the cursor from the N back to other settings or it won't fire. I used it with my Samsung 1050 pocket camera and it worked as well.
I am very happy to get it and would highly recommend it.
I would give it a 5 stars, if the shoe wheel were stronger so it could better be tightened to the bracket. I also think the battery cover is weak and would go sooner for someone who has to replace the batteries more often.

I am very pleased with this product. It performs as advertised. However, I have an issue with the design of fastening the flash to the camera. The thumbwheel and threads are plastic. When the thumbwheel is tightened to a certain point, there is slippage of the plastic threads, limiting the "tightness" of the flash to camera fit. Consequently, the flash has a tendency to wobble when attached to the camera, but, electrical contact is made. I believe metal threads would eliminate this problem.

I love the flash. It'll work wonderfully for what I need it for. I can attach it to my fujifilm finepix s9000 with the provided mounting bracket, and use both the flash as a slave, and the built in flash on the camera at once. Only one negative though, the mounting bracket is made of plastic. I anticipate it breaking if I'm not careful. Hopefully, before it does, I can find a metal one somewhere. Other than that, great!
