    Cheap, but useful

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 05/12/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    - Cheap - Small - Steady for lightweight cameras - Independent, extensible legs - you can level the tripod in tilted surfaces - Ball head
    Cons:
    - Cheaply built (what would you expect for the price?) - Ball head and screw are made of plastic. If you screw it too tight, it...

    Great value for the price

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 05/12/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    - Made with quality materials (medium-thick neoprene) - Well stitched, won't come apart easily - Folds out flat when not in use - Protects contents from humidity (but see cons too) and minor bumps - don't expect it to save your lenses from a fall.
    Cons:
    - Neoprene doesn't stretch, so if what you want to store in the pouch barely fits in it, you won't be able to close it. - It mo...

    Flimsy piston shaft, but you get used to it

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 04/26/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    - Cheap and made with good materials - Large variety of nozzles give you lots of options to decorate - Easy to clean (with a baby bottle brush)

    Short, but does the job

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 04/25/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    - Cheap, well built, works as expected - Enables more creative lighting techniques, taking your flashhead off the camera. - Looks and feels very well-made. - Packaging is excellent, with silica gel wrapped with each terminal, inside individual plastic bags.
    Cons:
    - Very short. It's just over 30cm coiled, and barely stretches to 1m. You will have to uncoil the cord to avoid damaging it if ...

    Very useful, high quality, difficult to put on flash

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 04/25/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    - Very lightweight, yet sturdy. It has a wire frame (metal?) around the translucent window. - Folds flat neatly and comes with a zippered nylon carrying case. - The inside is silver-lined, and the sides are sewn, so light doesn't leak - Silicone anti-slip s...
    Cons:
    - Elastic strap/velcro to attach softbox onto flash (YN560/580EX) head is a bit short, so you have to stretch it a lot - but on...

    Good bag, but dimensions are overstated

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 01/31/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    - Well built, quality materials, strong stitchings - quite easy to install, velcros seem to be sturdy - seems to be reasonably dust-proof (I usually carry my stuff in ziplock bags to prevent dust/moisture from ruining them). - Price is median, good deal for...
    Cons:
    - dimensions are overstated: this bag does not have 4+ liters - it's more like 2.5 liters. The dimensions advertised should let...

    Great quality puzzle

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 01/20/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Very smooth and well made, this is a challenging puzzle, it's actually called the Master Skewb. It draws lots of attention, due to its unusual movement, my friends are in awe! After some breaking-in and lubing, the pieces have almost no friction, turning v...
    Cons:
    Movement is not intuitive (it is a Skewb), so it will take some time getting used to. Sticker quality is not great, may have to...

    Compact and very bright

    posted by RicardoConsonni on 11/30/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    - This is a very bright LED flashlight, I believe it to be 500+ lumens indeed. - It has 5 modes, in case you don't need so much light, or want to make batteries last longer. I mostly use high and strobe.
    Cons:
    - I don't care at all for the SOS mode, specially because I don't know anyone who knows Morse code and would understand it. - T...
