The -7° downward tilt allows you to fully illuminate your subject when shooting close-up. You can also twist it to the left up to 90° and to the right up to 180°. MULTI ZOOM - The Opteka IF-980 covers a 24-180mm range (in 35mm full frame format) and extends to 18-180mm with the diffuser panel in place. In auto mode the zoom range is stepless, it does not set at 24mm, 35mm, etc, but matches the exact focal length of the zoom lens for optimal lighting. LOW LIGHT AUTO FOCUS - The Opteka IF-980 has an autofocus assist for low-light photography. Additionally the flash provides an independent AF assist. When a flash is mounted to the camera, the AF Assist option is enabled. The normal AF Assist light will not be used, instead the flashes autofocus assist system will take effect. E-TTL - The flash and ambient light are reflected by the subject through the camera lens and then metered by the camera's TTL metering system. The flash power is adjusted accordingly. A digital camera TTL flash system, often known as E-TTL, involves firing a pre-flash before the actual exposure SPECIFICATIONS - Guide 85m / 278'@ ISO 100, Red Eye Reduction, Auto Focus Target Assist Illumination, On-Camera E-TTL, Wireless Capability, Slave Mode S1 and S2, Multi-Stroboscopic Flash Mode, Manual Flash Mode, Built-In Wide Angle Diffuser and Bounce, Up to 1500 Flash Cycles Per Charge (must use rechargeable batteries), Recycle Time 2.9s, 2.1" Backlit LCD, 7 to 90 Degree Tilt, 180 Degree Rotation, PC Sync Port, 1 Year Opteka Warranty

I received this and it doesn’t work. It reads my f stop but won’t flash. The manual is not helpful at all so I can’t tell if it’s something I am doing or something I am missing. It seems like I have followed all the protocol for the flash having experience with other flashes and yet it still will not work. Amazon tried to help and could not contact the distributor and couldn’t help me with the product. I ended up returning this product. EDIT: I ordered a new one to see if this time it would work. It does work and I works well. Yet, I would be weary of ordering this product because it seems as though they do not check the equipment before shipping out and you may receive a defective product. Also, the instructions are very vague and unhelpful. While I like the product now I would be weary to buy this.

I have tried everything. The flash appears to fire when shooting in M on my camera but my images are still dark. I tried TTL with no luck. It shows on my camera menu and my f stop marches/shows what’s on the flash led screen it’s just not firing properly. If I put the flash into manual and put it in manual on the cameras flash menu....it doesn’t fire at all. I’ve tried in all my camera modes. Auto, aperture priority, manual etc....NOTHING! I was hoping for good results but I sent it back and ordered a different brand with HSS as well!

The product I got wouldnt even turn on after adding the batteries. I thought I was getting a good deal but decided to return this and go for a more reputable brand.
