thanks for the video...very good!! ;)

[divinefashionco1]

I'm new photographer I want to know will 270 flash give u better quality photos n can it be use outside ??

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@divinefashionco1 Yes, the built in flash on must SLR cameras is usless past 10 feet or so. Also you can not "bounce" the flash off a wall or the ceiling. They work perfect in outdoor settings and for fill light.

[luminialbastre]

Will it work with the Powershot SX-series?

[ralph18Utube]

Thanks for this video! Just bought this flash for my G12 and your quick demo is really helpful.

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@ralph18Utube Awesome...best of luck using it! Where do you post your shots?!

[santohang]

Thanks for the great video, I have a t1i, and planning to buy 270ex too.

[jesoby]

Good choice for G12

[ilovemac89]

congratulations on your beautiful camera and flash work on the EOS 1000D?

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@ilovemac89 It will fit any canon DLSR!

[ilovemac89]

@GeekwGlasseslive thx :D

[MrSebcheng123]

the flash is so small... does it even provide sufficient power to bounce off the wall?

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@MrSebcheng123 If you watch the end of the video at 4:10 I show how the built in flash compares to the 270ex and the last two pics are bouncing off the celling. It actually works pretty well....thats why I bought it! No super expensive and does the job! :)

[transslucide]

Thank you for your review guy !

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@transslucide Thanks for the comment! :)

[altis28]

[hallecats]

Thanks for sharing your video. I just purchased this falsh tonight. I am going to find you on Twitter also. I will be looking forward to more tutorials.

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@hallecats Thanks for the support! :)

[seals9121]

Nice Vid

Very useful thx a lot

[redlinecons]

how far can it go? (as in like, in sync with shutter speed) thanks!

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@redlinecons Can you be more specific??

[francislawton]

@redlinecons Canon say that the light will go 27 meters

[JuiceeBoxProductions]

Does it have a fast recycling time?

[GeekwGlasseslive]

It does for the first half the battery life, however it seems to get worse and worse after each pic when the batteries are depleting. I would recommend a good set of rechargeable double A's and a spare kept in your camera bag. It shoots great on fresh batteries.

thanks for your question! ;)

[GeekwGlasseslive]

@JuiceeBoxProductions Depends on battery life! New batteries its ready in a few seconds...the weaker they get the longer it takes.

[francislawton]

@JuiceeBoxProductions Alkaline batteries have a recycle time of 4 secs, NiMH are about 3 secs.

[GeekwGlasseslive]

Im sure you can use a basic AA rechargeable. It does not have one that you can get for it specifically though.

[cherrybombink]

Is this flash compatible with the canon powershot S5 ?

[GeekwGlasseslive]

Most definitely! Rule of thumb, if it has a "hotshoe" it will work....its not brand specific either however you will lose some of the software control if you use a non canon flash on a canon ect.

[Quintinlicious]

What kind of lens is that you have?

[GeekwGlasseslive]

The lens that is on the camera in this video is a Tamron 18 - 200mm 3.5 EX I also use a Sigma 30mm 1.4

[BecksTech101]

Your videos are REALLY great! Please don't stop making them. Can you also please do a full review of this flash?

[GeekwGlasseslive]

Sure thing, what would you like me to cover specifically!? I'm on travel right now but will be more than happy to make a video highlighting its functions.

[BecksTech101]

Thanks! Um...everything! Haha I really have no idea about this product but am looking into getting a dedicated flash unit so any insight you can give me through video review would be great! Keep up the great work and have fun traveling!

[800764]

Although this flash unit is for a dslr it will work on the some of the canon powershot models.

[GeekwGlasseslive]

Cool, thanks for the info!

[AmazinglyGreatTech]

Great unboxing, keep up the great work!

[GeekwGlasseslive]

Thanks! Will try! ;) Happy new year

[CasualLuxuries]

What is the umbrella lights used for?

I want one so when I shoot videos for youtube the lightening is better. How many should I get?

Thank you

[GeekwGlasseslive]

Umbrella lights are used to create a large area soft light for photography. If you looking for good lighting in making videos just get yourself a tin work light at a home repair shop and throw a bulb in it and stick it directly in your face or get to and set them off to the sides.

[CasualLuxuries]

Awe, thank you so much.

Happy New Year

Take Care
