REVIEWS
- Michel Braunstein
I made a market study on all the ones existing on the market.
I eventually decided to invest on Retra Pro Max, and I’m so happy of them.
They are not the cheapest ones. They are quite expensive, but…
They are so amazing!!! They provide such a beautiful and well-balanced light.
Just after I received them I travelled to Mexico, for diving some Cenotes, Cozumel and Baja California.
I used my new Retra Flashes Pro Max quite intensely and WOW!!!
– Reiji Kyuga
”Retra has delivered, making it my top choice for diving. Whether I’m in the Maldives for Wide or Anilao for Macro and Snoot, it’s really one flash that does all.
With over 10,000 flashes and hundreds of dives, their performance, durability, and quality still feel like new. It allows me to dive with confidence and capture moments that will last a lifetime.”
– Glenn Egtved Hansen
"I've bought 2 pcs. of the Retra Pro Max, boosters, 1 snoot and several accessories. Before I bought the flashes, I had some questions, about the HSS and which flash trigger I needed for my camera and housing.
All my questions were answered professionally, and the following support has been outstanding. They really care about their customers.
Excellent products and fast shipping.
This is truly a professional company, that I can highly recommend."
– William Gladstone, Emeritus Professor
"My Retra strobes give me an unparalleled quality of light underwater. This comes from their beautifully uniform beam, reliable firing and colour temperature, the intuitive power setting steps, and the battery life."
– Ziad A. Al-Turki
"As someone who was always intimidated to use strobes, I cannot recommend Retra Strobes enough; whether you are an expert, or a beginner underwater photographer, Retra Strobes are the perfect addition to your camera set up."
– Bryan H. Blauvelt
"I am thoroughly impressed with the Retra workshop, this is outstanding service!"
– David Benz, Art & Water Photography
"For me, the Retra Flash Pro X is a real gamechanger. So much power and such simple and really well thought-out handling. Now underwater photography is even more fun."
– Roman Kasan
"I have been using Retra Pro X strobes paired with Sony A1 in a Nauticam housing for about a year now. During that time I took it on more than 200 dives and there wasn't a single dive I wouldn't be thrilled with the results I got."
– Magali Marquez, PADI / SNSI Instructor
"I feel confident using the Retra Pro strobe because it gives me peace of mind knowing that it detects moisture and tells me when I have a low battery.
After having worked with different strobes, I can say that the Retra Pro strobe along with the Retra LSD snoot has been a winning combination for my photography."
– Daniel Norwood, Dive Photo Guide
"After several months of constant use, I have nothing but good things to say about the Retra Flash PRO, and they have now become my go-to flashgun for the majority of my underwater photography work."
– Walt Stearns, Scuba Diver Destinations
"With the Retra Flash Prime, the quality and consistency of the light on subjects I was seeing was far more pleasing. The lighting from the Prime’s fully circular flash tube was impressively even."
– Nicolas Remy, UWP Magazine
"I would buy them again if presented with the same choice."
