I rate this flash 5 stars in accordance with it's entry level designation.No swivel? ....no kiddin' I knew that. It's not as powerful as the 5600 hs(d) or the new Sony equivalent? ... really, who'd a thunk it? It is what it is. The wireless flash works excellent and it gives consistent results. The price now is way down if you can find one available for sale,and remember they are the original Sony hvl-f36am flash. There is no difference but the labeling. So if you need a reliable flash to use instead of the little pop-up flash on your Sony alpha or Minolta 7,5 etc., then this is a great way to learn the ins and outs of flash photography. And again, I can't stress enough how awesome it is to have wireless capabilities at such a low cost.I use this on my Sony A200 and it works great. Don't hesitate to buy it, it's practical and high quality.Read full review
I purchased this flash as a General use flash for my SONY DSLRs, it is a great alternative to the built-in flash without buying another high end Sony flash. It is a very good deal for the money and since the SONY 36am and Minolta 3600HS flashes are identical you really can't go wrong. My only complaint is there is no test button, it's really more of a annoyance if you want to see if you have a flash or camera problem and just want to see if the flash fires quickly. Missing that is in no way a deal breaker, these are rock solid flash units. Being in demand all this time confirms this. if you need a reasonably priced flash and don't want an aftermarket or no-name unit take a look at these in the used market you won't be disappointed
I bought this flash for my 5D. The flash unit is light in weight as is most newer ones. Simple for the beginner, yet fantastic enough for an advanced photographer to grt creative with there picture taking. Matching this unit with a Konica-Minolta DSLR and you cant go wrong. I have yet to try it on a Sony Alpha series DSLR.
Great quality flash. Exposure compensation works correctly with the Konica-Maxxum 7D. All auto-zoom points work. Great price and fast shipping!

A very good mid-range flash that will work with the Minolta/Sony wireless system, or can be used on a current Sony Alpha camera like the a58, a68 or A77 with the right adapter.
