Vello Fusion Basic Reviews

It stopped working -- Will return it

By Monique
Rated 1 out of 5
Date: 2026-05-10

A few days after I wrote my favorable review below (5/4/2026), the transmitter and receivers now malfunction roughly 9 out of 10 times. I put new batteries in the transmitter, receivers, and flash units. I also verified that the flashes were operational and ready to fire. However, the transmitter/receivers now fail to trigger to flashes most of the time. I'm returning this Vello system.

Seems to do the job!

Works great as an off-camera flash trigger with my Nikon Z50 and SB-700. I primarily focus on photographing fungi these days and this setup allows me greater control over my light source, so I'm pretty happy. It's a bit of a bummer that the flash is limited to Manual mode rather than having TTL available; however, as someone whose early workhorse light source was a Vivitar 283, metering and making adjustments is still part of my muscle memory.
