Cameras very firmly entered people's lives. Along with the development of cameras, important accessories such as the flash have also developed. A flash is a light source (pulsed), which allows for proper illumination of a subject.

The flash is external and internal, and is also divided into types: slave and leading. Most often, the built-in flash is ineffective, so it is combined with an external flash. They work according to such a system: the master flash fires, and its impulse becomes a signal for the follower.

The specialists of the price aggregator, which presents the products of many online stores in Russia, compiled their rating of the best universal flash units.
