Wow, remember how I was ranting about “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”??? Well, SOMETIMES that’s not true. Sony just did something absolutely brilliant. They completely re-designed the way a flash unit works.
I think the re-designed swiveling is genius. It is like a built-in flash bracket, almost like a lightsphere now! Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. (Of course ALL on-edge flash-diffusion tools such as the whale-tail are useless on this flash unit, but I still think it’s a HUGE step forward in flash design. WAY cool.
I hope Nikon and Canon are BRAVE enough to adopt this new design. It might be patented though. But wow, way to go Sony!
