Used Speedlights

Buy a used speedlight at Kamera Express now! A speedlight is a flash you mount separately on the top (hot shoe) of your camera. Unlike the camera's built-in pop-up flash, it lets you influence the direction of the light. All used flashes are thoroughly checked and cleaned by a team of experts. You'll find that rating in the product specifications. 

Why choose a second-hand on-camera flash?

Want to give your photos that extra touch with powerful, controlled light, but rather not pay top dollar? Then a second-hand on-camera flash is an excellent choice. Ideal for portrait photography, events, weddings or creative use with off-camera flashes. More and more photographers are discovering the benefits of a used flash: affordable, reliable and ready to use straight away.

Money-saving

A new on-camera flash from a top brand can be quite pricey. Second-hand copies often offer the same performance and features for a much friendlier price tag.

Long-lasting use

Flashes are designed for long-term use and contain sturdy, solid parts. A well-maintained second-hand flash usually performs almost as well as a new one, making it a sustainable choice.

More creative control

With a good flash you get full control over light intensity, direction and atmosphere. Combine this with wireless control or accessories, and you open the door to a host of creative possibilities – without having to dig deep into your pocket.

We check the second-hand quality for you

When buying a second-hand flash, you naturally want to be sure everything works well. That's why our specialists extensively test each copy on:

  • Flash output and consistency: checked for maximum output and correct exposure;
  • Use of buttons, screen and interface: we make sure the operation is smooth and trouble-free;
  • Battery compartment and connections: checked for oxidation and correct operation;
  • Wireless functions (if present): tested for compatibility with transmitters, cameras and slave functions;
  • Accessories: if available, supplied with diffusers, feet or pouches;
  • 12 months warranty and return option: not satisfied after all? You can simply return your purchase.

Prefer to test it first or ask for advice? Then visit one of our shops. Many second-hand flashes can be viewed or tried out there. Our experts are happy to help.
