I am a amateur photographer getting back into photography after a long break during which cameras have changed out of all recognition! I was looking for a flashgun for my Nikon D3000 but didn't want to spend hundreds of pounds on a Nikon one as I wasn't sure how much I would use it. I did quite a bit of research and decided on the K & F Concept KF-882. I have only just got it as it was a Christmas present. First impressions are very favourable; it seems very robust was well packed with a nice carry/storage case. I have started using it a bit and it gives a good light and recharges fairly quickly. However, the one thing that majorly lets this flash down is the complete lack of any intelligible instructions with it. Why on earth produce what seems such a good, value for money product and let it down by not getting instructions written so that they can be understood in the respective language of the country in which they are being sold. I am sure there are more technologically savvy, experienced photographers out there who will know how to operate this without needing guidance but I am not one of them and am worried I won't be able to use this to its full potential.

Well built and works great. However it clearly states on the box it's a manual, yet it fails to mention this anyway on the Amazon description which is mis-leading

Unfortunately I cannot give this item 5 stars because I have not had time to properly analyse it! It appears to be of very good quality and seems to work well with the camera, the stand and the filter are not included in the package. But even the bag is of a good quality. For the price I would say it is excellent value.

Excellent speedlight, versatile and well made, instructions are a bit confusing but there's many excellent videos on YouTube to explain anything you wish to know or setup.

Very good quality flashgun, only rated 4 stars as I'm new to photography and really want to explore this flashgun to its potential. But don't be put off by the 4 stars this flashgun is very high quality and produces a powerful flash, I don't regret buying this at all!

Cool object especially if you want to shoot in the dark. You need to learn how to use it but then it is Beautiful

Bought this to replace my old flashgun which had decided to give up the ghost. Have used it a few times and it appears to be accurate. Works consistently. Very easy to use and I-TTL is brill.

At the time of writing, I have only had this unit for a day, but I am very impressed with the form and function and ease of use - especially considering the price - well done. The manual is a tab confusing in parts due to a little translation wobbles, but easy enough to work out. Everything feels solid and well put together and all the i-TTL functions work including automatic zoom and so they should.I mention this as on a previous purchase (different make/model/seller) they didn't but what did was the excellent service through Amazon handling the return and refund - a good customer experience.

This speedlight was really easy to operate and works brilliantly (no pun intended). Its fit and finish was very good and had a pleasant weight from its sturdy plastic housing. It requires 4 AA batteries (not included) to operate. The speedlight came with a user manual, speedlight stand/base, diffuser dome, and a carry bag. The head had a pull-out bounce card and wide angle panel, it also had a tilt range from 12 o'clock to 4 o'clock and could be rotated 360 degrees from lock to lock. I attached it to my Nikon D3300 DSLR camera and it worked off the bat perfectly and resulted in very evenly lit images. It was a massive improvement over my camera's built-in flash.Here's my YouTube video (https://youtu.be/AynOqz80WgY) unboxing, closeup look and quick test of the speedlight with my Nikon D3300 DSLR camera.
