Great little flash, poor customer service…

Great little flash, poor customer service…
I use this flash with my X-Pro2, and used it briefly with my X-Pro1 before upgrading. Focusses fast, and provides good exposure. It's easy to manage and does a great job. One thing I wish it had integrated into the pull-out is a bounce card in addition to the diffuser that flips down.Two weeks after purchasing this unit, it fell out of my bag. The flash itself doesn't show any significant scratches and looks like it's in perfect condition. However, the red, plastic lens cover popped off with the impact and one of the legs that holds it in broke off. I tried to contact Fuji for a replacement piece and had nightmares with their customer service department. LOOOONG hold times, then they refused to send me a new piece. It is a simple snap on piece, and it's a joke that they won't replace it without sending the whole unit in.4 stars for the flash, 1 star for the customer service for an average of 2.5 stars. I gave them 3 hear because I'd rather round up. It's a great little compact flash if you want to use a separate diffuser or don't mind more direct flash.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best available flash system for the Fuji X - e2 mirrorless camera.
Reviewed in India on September 19, 2015
I received this product in less than 36 hours on my order, tested the Fuji EF-42 TTL flash system right after - the best native flash currently available in the market for my Fuji X-e2 camera.
Very simple to use menu system, with an option for either 35mm or a digital (aps-c) camera - the zoom adjusts accordingly.
Powerful, with a quick recycle time, size not too bulky & looks good on the XE-2.
The coolest part is that the LCD display panel light is bright red.
