## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it work with sony rx10 camera & sony hvl-f32m flash?**
A: Not sure about your Sony flash, but I would expect it to work on most any flash.  It works on my Fuji flash without any difficulty.

**Q: will this extender work with Altura PhotoÂ® Professional Speedlite Flash (AP-C1001)**
A: The only limiting factor would be the attachment to the flash head.  The extender attaches with a strap around the flash head and the side panels are formed to fit the sides of the flash head.  So if your flash unit is roughly the same size as the, in this case Canon 430 EX, it should fit and work.  There are other sizes available for different flash units.

**Q: Does it fit the canon 430exiii? (different dimensions than 430exii or 430ex)**
A: The flash extender fits: Canon 430-EX, Pentax AF500FTZThe Canon 430 EX III-RT needs a FX-5 Flash X-tender. https://store.naturescapes.net/visual-echoes-fx-5-better-beamer-flash-extender/

**Q: Does this lens work for the 430-EXII as well as the 430-EX?**
A: Yes, works fine with the 430-EXii and should work with the 430-EX

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you use flash, you need this
*by E***G on May 28, 2011*

I had owned a Better Beamer previously, but on a trip to Costa Rica, our guide wanted one so desperately, I gave him mine.This little gizmo does a remarkable job of extending the light from your flash unit. Great for wildlife and especially birds, who might be in deep shadow and where fill flash along just won't reach. (Photos posted above). Just be sure you order the correct model number. I'm using a Yongnuo YN 468 flash, YongNuo YN-468 E-TTL Speedlite With LCD Display, Suitable for Canon 50D 40D 500D 1000D 450D which seems to be the equivalent of the Canon 430-EX, and my Beamer seems to fit perfectly.Please do not worry about harming the birds with the Beamer. They seem totally oblivious to it (and the flash), and your photos will be so much better for it.The lens itself has it's own protective case, and the entire thing folds flat for travel. It's lightweight, and I love it so much; there's no way I'm giving this one away.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Ask these questions before you buy this.
*by A***R on April 13, 2013*

Have you actually tried to take the kind of photos you want without the extender? Was it actually not good enough? Do you actually like how the photos look with flash? Is the focal length large enough to need an extender? My case: 430EX, Canon EF 100-400mm, forest birds. If the bird is so distant that 430EX is not powerful enough, the bird looks too small at 400mm. I stopped using the extender. Not a bad product at all though. I may still use it sometime in the future.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works!
*by T***0 on January 22, 2018*

This extender actually works. I tested my flash and 300mm lens combo with and without the extender. The extender definitely does push the reach of the flash beyond what I have been able to acheive before. I'll need to get out in normal shooting conditions to see how much of an advantage it gives me.The unit consists of three parts, the two arms with velcro strap and lens. The two plastic arms of the extender fit around the sides of the flash unit, not the top and bottom as I tried initially. Those arms are held tight to the flash unit with a velcro strap. It seemed secure in testing, but is clearly not intended for heavy duty use or to be stored on the flash unit. The Fresnel projection lens is attached to the front of the arms with narrow self adhesive velcro strips. That's really all there is to setting it up. It is easier to do the attachment if the flash is off of the camera. I used my camera flash unit as I normally would with my 300mm lens and found that the distance was indeed increased. I will be using this for fill flash outdoors shooting wildlife.The usual disclaimers apply with handling magnifying lenses in bright sun.I'm giving it four stars for now since I've only done very cursory testing. If it works as I expect in the real world, I'll probably jump it to 5 stars.
