Followed the steps provided in manual. But was not able to trigger optically. While my old M320 triggers optically.Awaiting technical resolution.

This flash has exceeded my expectations. I am using it with a Sony A99 II. It is smaller in size from previous Sony flashes yet still offers a lot of power. The new menu is simplified and easy to make adjustments. The flash head rotates vertically and horizontally which makes it very flexible and accommodates various shooting scenarios. I also bought the new Flashpoint R2 radio transmitter made for Sony cameras, but unfortunately it will not sync with the Sony Flash. I think the "made for Sony" means it will and does fit on the Sony Flash shoe on the camera. If I were to return either, it would be the Flashpoint R2 transmitter because I love this new flash,

I found this to be robust and easy to use with my A7iii. The flash covers the focal lengths that I use 21-100mm that I need and shows the range. I spent some time going through the menus and I find them straightforward now.
Bought this for use with Sony A58 camera and it fits straight on. Good size and weight for camera and so far resukts have been great. No intention to use off-camera or as part of lighting system at the moment but good to know it has the capability. Compatible with newer camera such as Sony A7 I have eyes on. Relatively new to photogaphy the unit appears simple to set up and use.
Bought this to accompany my new Sony camera. As it didnt have a combined flash built in.Great choice. Well pleased
I bought this flat unit several weeks ago for my new A7R IVA and it?s exactly what I needed. The menu is fairly straightforward and it has enough power to do most of what I need it to do. Especially love the ability to use it off camera and to control other flash units with it.
After finally tiring of the limits of the flash units built into my two a6500s I sprang for a trio of HVL-F45RM strobes and from my limited time using them I can say they work well, deliver as advertised -- and the radio link sure beats the infrared communications between my old Nikon D300s bodies and compatible, remote-capable strobes. The Nikons worked well enough, but at times ambient light or positioning necessitated some position tweaking to get the remotes to fire.No such problem with the HVL-F45RM, all the way out to about 100 feet....nice!
The flash charges very quickly. The building is not as good as Canon. The hot shoe is made of plastic and I’m not that happy about that. I was expecting a metal hot shoe. The flash head moves without the button.
Does everything it should very well. Particularly like the strobe. Starts and recycles really quickly with rechargeable batteries. On a balancing act it is more expensive than 3rd party flash guns but you on the other hand it is designed specifically for the camera and so the risk of a missed photo is reduced.Really like it!
