    Best smaller flash for parties and traveling
  

*by M***M on Reviewed in Canada on 15 September 2018*

I love this one because it's small, less weight and reliable. I am using this with a f4 lens, so it will give me 20/4=5 meter range.  It's perfect for house parties and when I am traveling, at night, I am using it to illuminate my subject and with slow shutter is capturing the background real light, you will have amazing pictures. Also, I am using it as a commander for other Sony flash and another big one.I recommend this one to all action camera guys. You have to travel light and this is light with big performance.

    Excellent with RX100M2
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on 27 November 2014*

This seems to be the go-to "cheap" flash unit for Sony mirrorless APS-C cameras like NEX6 and the newer Alphas (i.e., Alpha 6000).  I've not seen any reviews of it being used with RX100M2 which its compatible with, so I went on blind faith that thing will turn out okay.RX100M2 is a nifty little camera with excellent image quality but it's also been one of my most frustrating cameras to use b/c of the slow shutter speed it chooses for low light settings (wrote a lengthy review of that).  I've also always struggled with the poppy-uppy-flashy of RX100M2.  Direct flash is too harsh so often, I'd use bounce b/c the in-camera flash unit is spring loaded and can be tilted upwards as with most other Sony mirrorless cameras; however the bounce effect would only light up top half of the photo, so either the angle is wrong or the flash is too weak.  I almost got to the point of selling the RX but decided to give it a try with this little guy (HLVF20M) to see how taking low-light, indoor photos might change.I used it at a wedding recently (as slave camera to the NEX5R outfit ;-) and must say, I got some fantastic photos with this thing out of RX100M2.  I used bounce for all photos (the strobe can be pointed upwards), which is invaluable, and the pics came out smooth, evenly lit, and the color rendition was great.  It looks rather funny to attach such a big piece of accessory to a little camera like RX100M2 but I really now appreciate the fact that the camera came with a hot shoe mount b/c it allows for things like this. If you think about it, to get TTL flash with a camera like RX100M2 is great. Also, the strobe part sits quite high distance apart from the camera lens, which is what you want anyway so this is good. Sadly, the updated RX100M3 model has dropped the hot shoe mount to make room for in-camera EVF, so as far as the RX100 series go, M2 is now the only model and perhaps the last model where you can attach external accessories. *Tears*Back to the flash unit.  It's small, light, runs on its own batteries so the cycle time are fast and does not cut into the camera's battery, and is strong enough, as long as you're not expecting Speedlite-like strength and range. Again, the ability to bounce is invaluable.  For mid-sized rooms, it's perfect.  I do wish it had swivel but I'm not aware of any flash unit with swivel in this price range.  One minor complaint is that the unit turns on/off by the hinge that's at the bottom of the unit. So in the off position, the flash unit sits parallel to the ground and to turn on, you swivel it upwards as you see in the product pic. I wish there was a separate on off switch, since the off position makes the unit protrude out compared to the depth of the RX100M2 camera.  At $150, it's not a bad price at all especially when you think full-sized flash units are $400+.
