HVL-F1000 – decent flash
“there is no preflash to prevent it from triggering a studio flash setup. My MVC-CD400s built-in flash triggers the slave sensor on my studio lights with its preflash, and then the studio lights do not flash for the actual exposure. This no-preflash aspect of the HVL-F1000 is a big reason why I am keeping it. Its much safer for the cameras internal electronics than connecting a high-trigger-voltage strobe directly to the cameras hotshoe.” – By Paul

Good flash, but could be improved
“Before I received the flash in the mail I was scared that it was going to look awful with the sexy F717 camera body, but once I tried it on it kind of look cool anyways. However it is time for sony to come up with a flash that matches the rest of the camera’s sexy looks and color. Performance-wise it works as advertised: great for illuminating subjects far away from the camera.” – By Jose Elias

Definitely would recommend this product
“Since purchasing the Sony HVLF1000 Flash for use on my DSCF707 camera I’m continually amazed at its capabilities. Bounce flash and fill-flash are wonderful. There’s still some problems with red-eye, but that’s always a problem when the flash is so close to the taking lens.” – By beardog

Sony DSC S85 Camera
“Yes, this flash will work with the Sony DSC S85 camera. I had to take a shot in the dark and buy the flash to find out. Yes it works, and works well. “ – By L. M. Smith

It’s like Night and Day
“This definitely made pictures better for night or dim lighting. In some cases too much light – even when it’s turned to a low setting – but I have that problem with other cameras – just need to locate a diffuser card. All in all – good flash” – By J. Pham
