The diminutive MK-300 flash unit from MeiKe, priced $50–60, packs a surprising number of features into its unassuming shell.

The MeiKe MK900 is a $170 third party ‘clone’ of the former flagship Nikon Speedlight SB-900.

MeiKe sent us a sample of their Speedlite 580EX II clone. Everything went well until we bricked it by plugging in a battery pack.

The MK580 and MK900 flashguns from MeiKe are near-exact copies of their Canon & Nikon namesakes.

We try the Pixel King Wireless i-TTL radio trigger, using it with Nikon speedlights and with low-priced third party i-TTL flashes from China. Does it work?

We evaluate the MeiKe MK-430 and MK-431, third party external flashguns with manual, TTL and stroboscopic modes for use on and off camera.

Sitting alongside their earlier manual-only speedlight, the MK930, the MeiKe MK950 adds a range of features such as Canon E-TTL, an LCD screen and stroboscopic mode.

At the Interphoto trade show in Shanghai, new products and developments are presented and discussed by Aputure, CononMark, Jinbei, MeiKe, Phottix, Pixel, Yongnuo and other manufacturers.

Hong Kong company MeiKe have introduced a new flash, the MK930. It offers electronic zoom, high voltage battery support, an optical slave, and power down to 1/128.

We review the current generation of budget flash triggers: the Yongnuo RF-602, Pixel Soldier TF-372, Phottix Strato 4-in-1, Aputure Trigmaster and MeiKe MK-RC7. How do they compare?
