Terry,

I think the quality of the shots would be most strongly related to the skill of the photographer rather than the equipment used. Equipment is no substitute for skill, experience, practice and talent.

I'm sure there's many excellent photos taken with this ring flash, I'm sure there's many terrible one too.
