These work really well and are a delight to use for various lights. My one gripe is that one of the switches I bought a year ago disconnect and I have to restart it every couple of weeks.

So, I love, love this lens. It’s a great buy for what it can do. I use it on my D7500, so the DX format for Nikon’s F Mount is even better because I get to use the very nice sweet spot of the glass. The DX format gives me a very nice 75mm lens for great portrait shooting. I think I need the 35mm next. LOL.
Now, if you want the best, then you’ll need to fork out a bit over 2 times the cash for the 50mm f/1.4 lens. That is a much better lens for sure, but I feel this f/1.8 is a great buy for what it can do. It’s a bit lighter and it’s not weather sealed like some of the other really high end Nikon lenses that cost $1000+ to $2000+. I’m okay with that for what I get.

What a great flash for the price. It’s not the top of the line, which of course is much better, as you would expect 2 times the money. This to me is the best bang for the buck. I’ll probably end up getting a second one for my external flash photography on tripods if I set them up as slaves to camera’s master flash control.
It comes in a very nice case, has a diffuser, a stand, and some light filters. The reach is very adequate for what I do and the zoom lenses I use.

A very good UV filter that I would use but might not consider carefully if keeping your lens hood on solidly is important. Yes, it stays, but this is a thin filter which may be important to you. For that purpose, it is a 5 out of 5. It is not a B+W filter, but that German engineering and manufacturing comes at a cost. This is a great and cheaper alternative. I’d recommend this one well above the very cheap filters.

Images for this Review
(click to see full-size image)
For it’s size and all that it can hold, this is a very nice small but roomy mid-sized DSLR camera bag. I currently hold my Nikon D7500, 18-140mm lens, a 70-300mm lens, a 50mm lens, my Nikon SB-700 Speedlight, SD case holding 4 extra SD cards, 2 extra batteries for my camera, my camera’s battery charger, my USB cable that I don’t use but have just in case, my Geekco tripod/monopod that hooks up, my iPad Air with the Apple Pencil. I still have room for a water bottle, some hard candies/mints, my AirPods Pro, etc.
It’s secure, well padded, and I believe very rain resistant if I’m stuck in rain and don’t have an umbrella. LOL.

At first, I thought the price was too high for a new version, but I was wrong. This thing is amazing. The size and the way it works are great. It’s so much smother than the Gen 3 version and fits well. the extra back plate is a nice security feature than I recommend you use. Good job, August!!

This is probably the biggest improvement I have seen in a wearable in some time and Apple has managed to make a nice watch amazing. I own it love the screen. It’s more responsive, easy to read with the bigger screen, noticeably thinner (not a lot thinner, but it is nice), and the new features are great. It’s certainly louder and the faces are fantastic.
The old bands fit and be used, which is good. I’m able to use my extra travel magnetic chargers. The new walkie-talkie feature is cool and I do use it with my brother and son.
I had the series 3 and believe the series 4 is a worthwhile upgrade.
