My new flash unity arrived today! just had the unboxing and its one of those occasions where Olympus have been good enough to supply a small bag. I wish they did with Lenses alongside a lens hood! I have a few days on a business trip and will have evenings to try out! :)
try it outside and inside. When outside click mode until it displays ttl hss.

Hi, I have found the TTL-AUTO, AUTO, MANUAL, FP TTL AUTO, FP MANUAL,
SL AUTO, SL MANUAL, RC flash modes but not ttl hss?

PS totally blown away with the difference in performance between my metz 24, not a fair comparison I know, but the Metz was the first external flash I have used. Whole new ball game! :)

It will be the one with "High Speed Sync" in TTL mode

Be aware though... it is a very short flash, and used within 10 feet or shorter distance..But, outside, it allows a very fast shutter speed with flash.

Its mounted on the Fuji most of the time now, but I bought it with the intention of using it for video in the future (probably on a RED). Its reassuring that people still build lenses like this and now I'm inspired to find a voigtlander 75 or maybe even a Nokton 50.

I bought the m-mount version totally for the filter mount which works perfectly on the Fuji, I wonder though if standard 52mm filters will vignette on full frame?

Founa a shop in Vicenza where they gave me a good price for my Panny G3 kit, so I jumped the shark and got this:


Olympus OM-D EM5 di blaufeld66, su Flickr

They included also a second battery...
Olympus OM-D digital,  Mamiya C220 Medium Format, FED 5C 35mm.
