Great versatile hotshoe flash

This was a replacement for a previous speedlight that finally stopped working. This speedlight offers Master and Remote capabilities, good power, relatively fast recharge, and quick access to most functions. I pair this with Yongnuo flashes and Yongnuo triggers to allow for multiple off-flash setups.
I consider this the least expensive Nikon branded full-featured speedlight for their DSLRs with a hotshoe.

Listen to soothing nature sounds when you wake up to this Sony ICFC1PJ clock radio that features dual alarms for multiple wake times. The swivel projector allows you to display the time on a wall or ceiling for easy viewing during the night.

This was a replacement for an alarm clock in the master bedroom that has served me for almost 20 years. I chose this model primarily because of the ability to set a weekday alarm, weekend alarm, or 7 days a week. This clock allows me to set a time for the work week, a second for the weekend, and then not worry about turning one alarm on and the other off. This prevents the occasional oversleeping during the week and getting up far too early on weekends.
Although this model has nature sounds, they are not quite as "natural" as one might wish. There may be better "nature sounds" clocks available if that is the primary reason for looking at this model. AM and FM reception is good. I occasionally listen to talk radio at night and this is a good option.
This clock has a dimmer feature attached to the snooze button. There are 2 levels of brightness as well as a no display setting. This is very useful if you want to reduce the light pollution while sleeping. I normally turn off the display when sleeping and use the projector for the time. In the mornings, I just hit the snooze button a couple of times to turn the display back on the desired brightness. The brightest setting is fairly bright and while good during the day, the dimmer is appreciated at night.
My only quibble is the design of the button to turn on the projector. The button is located on the side of the clock and requires a relatively firm push. It may be better placed on the top of the clock so one is pushing down on the button rather than pushing the clock across the nightstand. A small square of non-stick shelf liner under the clock mitigated this for me.
The chime is rather quiet -- at least at the start -- and grows in volume as the alarm goes off. If you are a light sleeper, the gentle chime will be welcome. If you are a heavier sleeper, it may take 10 seconds or so before the increase in volume "alarms" you.
One added feature I use fairly often is the USB port. I will often charge both my tablet and phone at bedside but normally not both at the same time. This gives an extra port for that.
This was a bit more expensive than other clocks but feel it was a good purchase. I would have liked a model without the nature sounds for a bit less money but overall, I'm very satisfied with this.

What's great about it: Small footprint, radio presets, stylish, projects current time.
What's not so great: Minor design issue with projector button.
