Very nice review kid!

I like how you can have 2 videos running at the same time.

Is this a hard thing to do?

I sometimes add images to videos by using the text line,

delete text and import image but videos side by side I have not done.

[holdsworthjreviews]

@simon1974uk Sorry for late reply. Not very hard, most video editing applications can use PIP (Picture in Picture) feature - just as your describing - but with videos too. Camtasia Studio does this well too, but any programme with layers and the ability to edit the zoom of each reference should be easy enough to do :) If you like I can make a tutorial explaining how to do it on my tutorial channel

Good review! Couple of bits of feedback the mount on top of a camera is called a hot shoe (think you may have said horse) and in the video you said it was both pricey and cheap but past that it was great :) Think I may pick one up!

[holdsworthjreviews]

@ojtsmith Thanks :) Yeah I did say horseshoe but I was reading off a bit of paper I'd written speedily and kind of couldn't read my own writing back :) I'll bear that in mind for the future. and the pricey & cheap bit; I kind of meant Pricey for a first time buyer who's not used to SLR equipment but in comparison to other products for SLR cameras, quite cheap. Thankyou for the feedback though I do appreciate it!

Show testing of it? :L



[holdsworthjreviews]

@georgewasere I know :) Need to work on my speaking on camera skills ;)

[DjLouisBeeden]

Does this fit the Canon 1000d ?

[holdsworthjreviews]

@DjLouisBeeden I would imagine so, as long at the 1000D has a TTL hotshoe then there shouldn't be a problem

[holdsworthjreviews]

@ZuluDJAd I haven't had to worry about recharging or changing the batteries as of yet. I use it commonly in my portrait photography and remove them after each use, then put them back in the flashgun when needed. It has been approximately 3-4 months now since and I have used it also in a portrait photoshoot which lasted 6 hours. I couldn't really give a good estimate, but can say it gives definitely over 200 shots on a single charge (depends on your batteries as well)

[nfinnigan]

What software did you use to make your you tube video?

Nice review, thanks.

Other flash that's great for the canon SLR and great price is the Yongnuo YN-468

[holdsworthjreviews]

@nfinnigan The software I use is Sony Vegas 9 :)

[mattaston102]

I really like this flash gun, however I have an Olympus DSLR, will it still work?

[holdsworthjreviews]

@mattaston102 I shouldn't see why not. Try a local Jessops and enquire :) Thats my advice ;)

[jcardrosebud]

Nice review, I think you will find 360 actually refers to the guide number for this particular model and not the fact that it is a tilt and swivel unit. (I might be wrong of course!)

[holdsworthjreviews]

@jcardrosebud Maybe... Box says guide number is 36m/ISO 100

[slboy5]
