The VS-260 features a guide number of 72' at ISO 100 and an adjustable tilt head with five set positions: 0°, 45°, 60°, 75°, and 90°. The flash covers a 35mm range (in 35mm/full frame format) and also offers rear curtain synchronization for shooting at slower shutter speeds. It has an autofocus assist for low-light photography, and an automatic power-saving function that turns the flash off when it's inactive for three minutes.

This model comes equipped with the Sony Multi Interface Shoe and is not directly compatible with the Sony/Minolta style Auto-lock Accessory shoe. Optional adapters are available for connecting this flash to older cameras.

Great flash for the A7 cameras
I have an A7R and found Sony/Nissan flashes to pricy for my pocketbook. I ran across the Bolt and, based on the comments of others, I decided to get one. Right out of the box it has worked great. I'm not sure I have all the settings on my camera correct, but it does indeed flash at different powers and has done so with every shutter click. And I'm really glad I got the off-camera cord (from Vello) which gives me total control over angle, power, and dispersion. Great product.

Nice little flash for the price!
I'm using this with my Sony A6000 so I wanted something small. and since I won't be using it too much I didn't want to spend a lot. It was on sale also. Seems to have a decent range. No controls on the back but the camera controls worked fine. It says something about wireless but I could not make if flash except when in the hotshoe.

The one I got doesn't work with the a6000 or a7rII
I bought this to have a small flash fill for my Sony bodies, a6000 and a7rII. Both cameras told me that is is an incompatible device, no TTL or power output controls at all, useless!

true deception
doesn't really work with the a7s I or II, it flashes but it does not calculate well the lighting with this camera plus it is made of terrible plastic. Mine broke on the 3rd use, best to invest a bit more money on a better flash.

Small and handy flash
I am using the Bolt on a Sony a6000. It works fine. I opted for this flash because of the tilt-head, which allows for bounce off of ceilings. The size is nice. Be mindful that it is not too powerful. Very simple operation.

Does not work with Sony A7R II
My Sony A7R II detects the flash unit (flash icon displayed in viewfinder), the flash test and auto focus-assist light work, but camera will not trigger the flash. Contacting Sony and B&H.
