Es una opción demasiado buena y económica comparada con otras marcas de cabecera como canon o Nikon. Su función de enfoque láser en ambientes nocturnos funciona muy bien.

Neewer is a smaller company that produces photography accessories ranging from Lens Filters and Lighting to Tripods.After upgrading my DSLR's to Mirrorless in 2024 I was looking for a flash unit for my Nikon Z8's.My experience with aftermarket flash unit's is that you get what you pay for and usually the Camera maker provides the best flash systems, after all they Made you camera, right?In 2025, the Camera makers without exception sell Flash Systems that have NOT been designed for the latest Camera technology and are in fact products that have seen very little up dated outside of price and product version naming.After researching Flash Systems, features, benefits etc.......I took a leap of faith on Neewer's Z2. After using it and comparing it to my previous Nikon Speedlites, I was pleasantly surprised. Build quality is excellent and the unit feel as robust as my Nikon.On camera, the unit functioned flawlessly in fact so well, that I ended up buying second system as a back uo for my Z6iii.I purchased both systems for less money than buying 1 current Nikon version that has fewer features than the Neewer.Highly recommended

I got this to upgrade my old external flash. This one is easy to use, creates excellent light source in those precious moments in photography. Charges quickly and fast recharges for the next photo quickly. I should be photographing a wedding soon. I'm looking forward to testing out how long the battery will last during a long event, but in the short events I have done with this external flash it has worked beautifully. The power is phenomenal at creating natural light. I'm looking forward to keeping this item as a staple in my everyday photography business.

I mentioned the user manual up front because it really is composed in the kind of clear English that reads like someone is trying to explain things to you, as opposed to just dumping a rehash of the menus onto paper. There is a secondary publication included which contains "Troubleshooting" steps and that could be valuable if you can get your hands on that prior to acquiring one of these flashes. The booklet acknowledges for example that some lag in response for certain functions are a known condition with Sony cameras. It is refreshing to have information like that provided with a product. I don't know if that information can be found pre-purchase from Neewer directly.Cosmetically they have kept this flash very plain looking. It is a lot of flat black surfaces and controls. Even the display panel scheme is black, white, grey. There is not separate ON/OFF power switch apparent. It is activated by pressing the button in the center of the wheel for 2 seconds according to the manual. So far anytime I press that button the flash comes alive in under 1 second, no matter how long I have left it off and untouched. Something that puzzles me is that the button is never locked out. In other words, I suspect if the flash was in a bag and bumped such that the button was activated, the flash is going to be turning on. I accidentally turned it on many times just from handling the flash to set it up for photos or to examine features.There are 2 modeling lights. Both manage to illuminate to useful effect at least 2 metres distant. They have a distinct yellow hue. One of the model lights is inside the adjustable flash head; the other is fixed on the main body of the flash.The battery housing is arranged in the contemporary style of sliding the battery in from the side. The spring to push it back out is fairly strong so you will want to have a finger over the end of the battery when you release it to control how far out it pops from the main body. For charging, I used the supplied cable with USB-C on both ends. I also tried a cable with USB-A at the power source end and it worked. I do that compatibility test on everything now since I've had different results a few times.Neewer gets additional points for including a magnetic dome diffuser. I think most users will eventually be interested in having that diffuser so this saves extra expenses and time to get one. It is identical to the magnetic dome diffuser spec'd for another major brand of flashes.

This light is amazing! I have shot predominantly outdoors for 11 years. I moved somewhere cold and needed to learn how to shoot indoors. I started with a super cheap OCF from this same company and quickly realized I needed a more powerful and versatile option. I use it to bounce light, and the filter creates gorgeous, powerful, even light. I love that you have to recharge it instead of requiring AA batteries because I have a more accurate read on how much battery is left. 10/10 would recommend!

Bought the Z2-C to use with my Canon R8 - it surpassed my expectations on all fronts. Quality build, ease of use, modern technology, works flawlessly. You will be hard pressed to find such all around quality and features from Canon and Godox at this price point. It truly is the best you can get for so much less than top contenders. Metal shoe that locks solidly in place, no mount wiggle; an excellent magnetic mounting system for diffuser and accessories that works perfectly, updated LCD display and UI with buttons/controls that are intuitive and don't feel cheap. Score it before it gets too popular and expensive ;)

I bought this along with a Neewer Q4 because I liked the idea that they could share the same trigger and be used together. That aspect is great. The flash is plenty powerful, that it great. The controls are straight forward and simple, I love the quick switch from manual to TTL, that is great. The battery stays charged very well, but I miss being able to snag a few AA batteries to keep my speed light going— I suppose I should just buy a spare but that’s painful compared to buying AA batteries. The TTL function works okay, not amazing, I assumed most brands would have this dialed in by now but I had much more consistent results with my older cheaper Yongnuo speed light (this occurred across multiple cameras from 5D classic to Canon R6). The way this flash (also the Q4) communicates with the remote is kind of janky, if I make TTL adjustments on the remote it’s not reflected on the speed light, and vice versa. Same issue with the Q4. I believe the manual says these settings are accounted for independently and allows for +- 3 stops via remote and an additional +- 3 stops on the light itself, but between the inconsistent TTL performance and the feeling that the speed light and trigger aren’t communicating properly because they don’t reflect the same settings, this makes me feel like there’s just something wrong with it. This could be user error, but I’ve never had these feelings with Yongnuo or canon speed lights. Used in manual mode I have zero complaints, but I don’t rely on the TTL and only use it when it’s not super important in order to try figuring out why I’m getting inconsistent results (usually leading to frustration).
