This flash is credit card size and it’s only $30

If you’re looking for an extremely small, light and versatile pocket flash to add to your hot shoe, then the teeny tiny Yongnuo YN6 Mini Flash could be the compact solution you’re looking for. It’s about the size of a credit card and is just as easy on your wallet as it is on your pocket, costing just $30!

Its lightweight design and practical features make it suitable for both casual photography enthusiasts and professionals. Measuring just 113x113x43mm and weighing 93 grams, the YN6 is truly pocket-sized, making it an ideal accessory for on-the-go shoots.

Key features

The flash is compatible with a wide range of cameras that feature a hot shoe. It is available in two versions: one designed specifically for Sony hot shoes and another for universal hot shoes. Its sleek design is available in three colour options—white, silver, and black— which gives photographers the choice to match their existing gear.

Four brightness levels

The YN6 Mini Flash provides versatile lighting adjustments with four brightness levels, a 90-degree angle adjustment for fill flash, and a 105-degree rotation angle. These features allow photographers to easily modify light direction and intensity to suit various shooting conditions. A pull-out reflector card is also included, enabling enhanced light diffusion for more balanced results.

Operating the flash is extremely simple. You turn the flash on, wait for it to power up (indicated by a red light), and then choose the level of flash output you want from the four options. It’s ideal if you just want a small amount of fill flash on your subject. Included is a CTO gel, which allows you to better match the ambient colour temperature if you need to.

Rechargeable

The flash is powered by a built-in rechargeable lithium battery, which can be conveniently charged via a USB-C port. The flash offers a fast three-second recycle time, ensuring it is ready for consecutive shots with minimal delay. Its straightforward operation is another highlight: users simply turn the flash on, wait for the indicator light to turn red, and select the desired brightness level.
