Customer Review

I wonder why so many complain much here. The flash is applicable to my E-PL2 / E-PM1 wonderful in TTL-use and exposed very balanced and well. Especially with the WW essay you rel. can put firmly the 9-18er of Olympus from the unit lights up carefree and vignetting (KB equiv. 18-36). Then it came to me. The hotshoe mount I have no problem and I think it even not bad solved, albeit somewhat filligraner than the usual screw or a high-quality lock switch as with the expensive Canon (have another 430EX, 550EX, 580EX) or Nikon devices

Otherwise, the only swivel Metz (not rotatable) and can not be dimmed, etc. It has no display, only an on / of switch and the OK indicator. However, that can also relax. Too bad I find the hand-Zoom reflector is a bit too easy. The chassis has not quite the class of expensive equipment.

However, In fact, I think you get probably the Yongnuo YN560-II for that same money more offer as I once had the same design for this one LX3 and to him quasi could not be faulted. I just did not know that it also exists for Olympus. The Yongnuo stands in the value of the original Blitzen against congenially.

Nevertheless, I keep the Metz as he well exposed / brightening and I rarely use anyway a flash without a science make it want to. That is why 4 stars + ich bins satisfied.
