Im interested in the product but want a 3 flash strob effect (real fast) Anyone know if it has the function?

You can program it to do 3 fast flashes then steady on. Make sure to follow the instructions...they're a little confusing for someone with out tech experience.

Yes you can choose 3 fast flashes. There are many options. I have mine set to flash six times fast and then six times slow and then steady on as long as I leave my foot on the brake. Programming does take a bit of time, but it is not that bad. I have changed my setup three times after living with them for awhile until I found the combination I liked.

I don't understand the question but if I assume the question, MP 3 Part doesn't really work. I tried to make it work but it just doesn't.However, the light effect is excellent. I still use it for my dance class and private parties.

I beleive there are a couple of settings for the flash. Like flash, fill flash and so on. I think you can download the manual from their site.

The strobe has a regular mount for a flash stand. As for tripod mount, I suppose there is an adaptor for a tripod that would allow mounting but I'm not aware of it. The strobe works out of the box just fine, I use Pocket Wizard trigger for mine and it works great.

Unsure, I've never known them to have any. I'm sorry I couldn't help you with this, but the flash did work when I got them. Thank you.

It works on anything. But there is no TTL capability. It's a basic single-pin transmitter and receiver that sends a simple on/off signal. The transmitter mounts on the hot shoe of the camera and the receiver either mounts to the shoe base of the flash or connects to another flash or light system via a mini-jack input sync cord. The transmitter sends the on/off signal to the flash. There is no power control or adjustability. Hope that helps.For TTL and customization options, you need the Strato, or better yet, Pocket Wizards. More expensive, but definitely worth it. There is a reason you see Wizards on pro rigs...(Pocket Wizards are my next upgrade). Cheers! :) It works on anything. But there is no TTL capability.

Probably, yes... BUT don't do it. There's no way to work a flash.. not even with fiber optics because they never accommodated for the pop up flash on these cameras... no room in the housing. Means you need to manually work a slave strobe.. no fun :(

Most of these answers are blatantly wrong. There are three main "modes."1. Regular "on"2. dimmed "on"3. Strobe/Flashing.Turning it on/off quickly should get these effects.

It's great for flash 3d games. I use it all the time for Netflix. Great deal! Seriously! :)

I had to have mine replaced twice and the third one broke as well. When I called up, they told me this device was defective ( I guess all of them) and they would exchange it for the silk n' flash lux with 120,000 flashes and credit my account for the difference. So yeah, it's probably best to just buy that. I did notice a difference after only one use though, so it's a good investment...maybe just not this model.

There is a sync cor provided but it is a bit short. If you have a Speedlite you can trigger these strobes with that or consider buying one of the cheap CowboyStudio 4 Channel Wireless Triggers. I work with both methods often problem free.

This one does not. I'll be surprised if you find one that does. Having a fixed beam of light cancels out the effects of the strobe. So it would be kind of pointless. I hope I'm wrong though and you find what you're looking for!

Yes, the strobe light flashes 12-15 seconds after the button is pushed. Hope this helps!Michael

No idea. I bought it. Wasn't impressed. Plus flash didnt pop out consistently and returned it.

It will work fine under regular circumstances, to the best of my knowledge. Unless you work with studio strobes, like me. Then there are problems. So it's just gathering dust on my shelf...

The strobe mode flashes about 3 times per second. It is not blinding and I would not rely on it as a personal safety device.

Will it fire? Yes. Will it work in full TTL Auto Mode? I don't think so. I use these in slaved multiple flash situations and they function beautifully for that purpose. There is also a newer version of this flash but the previous version is also being sold I think. If you do buy, make sure you get the newer version. Would advise getting advice from someone who can address a solution your needs and knowledge level before you buy. Good luck!
