In most cases the SFD926 works well as a TTL flash. After switching to 1.5v or 1.6v batteries, I had no other operational problems. Although, there were a few short hiccups when starting up the flash using (fully charged) 1.2v NiMH batteries. In short, I found the Bower flash to perform reliably. I tested the Canon version SFD926 with the 5D Mark II in TTL and manual modes. The SFD926 has an optical slave, which makes it an attractive option for the strobist-on-a-budget crowd who want to shoot in full manual across the power range. Additionally, the SFD926 can be operated in manual mode with adjustments from full power down to 1/16 power ( i.e., a 5-stop power range). The SFD926 will operate as a normal TTL flash, which means that your camera can communicate directly with the flash to provide commands for the correct amount of flash output needed for a proper exposure. The feature set is also rather impressive for a flash in this price range. At around $100, the SFD926 is an affordable alternative to the more expensive hot shoe flashes from Canon, Nikon and the likes. The Bower SFD926 TTL flash is a hot shoe flash that is available for just about every DSLR on the market now.
