Nikon 1 SB-N5 Speedlight |
It doesn't require batteries, drawing it's power from the camera battery. The head swivels up to vertical and to either side to bounce the flash either from the ceiling or walls or cards on either side. It is pretty powerful for it size and have been delighted to see some of my night time----indoor shots which normally look terrible look as bright and as softly light as if it were day light outside.
It seems pretty friendly on the battery life as well, I haven't noticed a significant drop in battery life with the flash as compared to without (I suppose that may change as the battery ages).
