FUJIFILM EF-X8 Reviews

Great Flash for Travel

By George
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-08-02

Bought this for my Fuji X-E4 and it works great as a portable travel flash for times when you want a bit of light. Note that it uses the camera body for power. It's not a powerful flash, but gets the job done. And it's easy to remove and throw in your bag or pocket when not needed.

Handy addition to my gear

While this flash unit looks almost like a toy, it does a great job. Nothing fancy, but it is great in those situations in which you need a little more light on your subject. The size is a nice feature. It is small enough to fit in a shirt pocket, so it is easy to carry along on a photo expedition. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it works.

Handy and Highly Portable

By Lindsay

Was this a necessary purchase for my X-T4? Not really. But for the price point, there wasn't a reason not to have a highly portable flash for when the situation arises. I likely won't use it much, but it's so compact that it's easily kept in my bag for when a little fill light is needed for better results.

Perfect Size

By Joel
Rated 5 out of 5

This flash is smaller than I had imagined. Perfect for those of us who do not traditionally use flashes. The size is ideal to tuck away in a camera bag for when it becomes necessary. Best as a fill flash at short distances. This flash is not a replacement for more powerful flashes that provide wider shooting options for varying conditions. Will need to insure that the mechanical shutter is enabled on your camera for this flash to work. I use a X-Pro 3.

Tiny size and good functionality

By Thomas J
Rated 5 out of 5

One of these came with my Fuji X-T3, so I am familiar with it. This one is for my Fuji X-E4. This EF-X8 flash is tiny, powered by the camera through the hotshoe so it has no batteries, and it is full TTL or manual if you wish. The small size makes it easy to toss into the camera bag. This is its winning characteristic. I also have a Fuji EF-42 flash, much larger and more capable, but seldom use it.

Great fill light

I use this with the XT-4, and it makes a nice fill light when you're indoors in low light!

Great for the price

By William R.

It's not the most powerful flash out there. Considering the price, the size, the weight, and how it works on a Fujifilm camera it's hard to beat. Would have had 5 stars with more power but I knew that ahead of time. Highly recommended.

Stopped working in two days
