Neewer Vision 4 300W Outdoor Studio Flash Strobe Li-ion Battery Powered Cordless Monolight with 2.4G Wireless Trigger, 1000 Full Power Flashes, Recycle in 0.4-2.5 Sec, Bowens Mount

I bought one, tested it out , and liked it enough to buy a second ! I’m using it in full manual mode (camera and strobe) and it works great. You could probably play around with intensity on auto mode too. Fast strobe settings are nice for action, though it can be noted they are not quite as bright as the regular full intensity flash. It can chug along on high drive mode on my 70d for sequences without any issue, though it will eventually start to “fade” a bit. Only issue to be noted was that I had to turn the “silent lvl shoot” to “disable” otherwise it would not fire in live view, likely a camera specific issue (70d). The wireless transmitter works excellently. It is large and you’ll want a stand. It’s a nice fill light and I’m looking forward to the arrival of my second unit. Edit: it is still working well- the only issue so far is that the umbrella holding screw strips very easily, and they designed the hole in the hood for the umbrella to pass through so it’s in the wrong spot when rotated and locked in. So you either have to cut a new one or use it without a hood, which is kinda lame. But, for the price I can deal with it

I was excited to get this light as an affordable step up to a strobe from speedlights. I wanted strobe power but with a battery - something portable that I could easily take on outdoor shoots. This was not my first choice, but the price was right, and it was worth trying this out.What I love: It is powerful - 300ws of power, enough to overpower the sun when shooting in bright conditions. Easy to use - with very little experience using a strobe, I was able to quickly start using this without pouring through the (small) user guide. Excellent battery life - I've not yet been able to run down the battery after at least a couple hundred shots. Durable - as others have noted, it is built like a tank. Reliable - With over 200 shots, I've not noticed any misfires, and the light, as best I can tell, has been quite even.What I'm less thrilled with: Size & weight - while very portable, this has some heft to it; not something you want to lug long distances. Trigger - extremely low build quality and no options to adjust the light remotely. Features are limited - modeling light controls are limited to on/off and it will only stay on for around 1 minute; unless I'm missing it, you're limited to full-stop adjustments from 1/1 to 1/128 - 1/3 increments would help; and most importantly, no support for HSS and TTL. One of the benefits of a powerful light like this is the ability to add light in bright environments, but without HSS, you're left wanting/needing an ND filter for shooting at wider apertures.I'm honestly on the fence about this light. For the price, it is hard to imagine a better value. I've not come across a light this powerful, especially one with a trigger (yes, it's cheap, but it works), for anywhere close to this price. But that is where I am wondering about keeping this. For a little more money, you can get the Godox/Flashpoint AD200. It is not as powerful, but is way more portable and has a variety of affordable modifiers available. Portability is probably a little more important to me than power, but I'm so pleased with the light and what all that power can do that I'm inclined to keep this.BTW, I've had pretty good success using this with cheap speedlights set as optical slaves. This opens up a lot more shooting options.

My Go to light for outdoor photoshoots. The battery life is amazing -- once you fully charge the battery, you can pretty much use it for 3 more times before you have to charge it again. Doesn't have to much of a lighting range but works great for beginners and portable photographers

Couldn’t find a review with pro images so I thought I’d give my 2 cents. I would leave 5 starsn but I can hear this thing hissing (a really high pitched tone that most people can’t hear) I thought it was a short circuit but this is my second one and they’ve both done this new out of the box. I think it’s cheap wires or an iffy connection somewhere; However right now it does the trick and the quality of the light seems very nice. I think Neewer has a decent manufacturers warranty so I’ll make sure to update my post if anything changes.PS- the LED modeling light isn’t that useful but it’s nice to have something to use in the dark and not have to worry about a bulb sticking out... the kit also comes with a little plastic dome that locks into the Bowen’s mount to protect the LED and flash bulb. Makes traveling much easier.These photos were taken using a 28” beauty dish with diffusion at around an hour before sunset. If you’re tough enough to carry this on location (no handles on it) then it’s a very solid contender for the price. I will keep one around for work.

Absolutley love this light. Solid build, Extremely bright. Only wish it had 1 /128th power option it stops at 1/64th, but honestly not an issue. Fair weight, screws and knobs feel great and hold well. Im posting some of my images to show what is capable, I hate seeing reviews with no real quality samples of whats possible. Setup was a promaster LS-2n 9' stand and a pro master white to black/white 36 inch umbrella for the studio strobe, and a simple speedlight behind. I felt like there was a slight green tinge to it but that's easily correctable and barely noticeable, I'm just a perfectionist. The thing is ready to fire again almost immediately after a shot. Love the 2.4ghz trigger that comes with it, easy setup grab and go. The battery life is great, but it was just shorter than i expected but I am not expecting to be a problem whatsoever. I bought an apache 5800 water proof protective case to place it in and it just exactly fits with room for two speedlights an extra battery and the triggers plus some AA's and the charger.
