Deal Alert – Olympus FL600R

As you know I’m a big fan of this little flash, the Olympus FL600R. It’s small, powerful for its size and works wirelessly too. I used two of them to shoot the Miami People issue for Village Voice media over the summer. I could have used any lights but I wanted something powerful and compact and the FL600R fit the bill.

FL600R FeaturedAlso of note the FL600R is 100% compatible with Lumix G cameras too. So all the functions you see in my FL600R review will work with the GH3 and G5(no wireless on the G5).

The FL600R is $50 off until mid-month so if you were on the fence get it.

Purchase the FL600R by using this link.

    Of course I purchased mine a month ago. :-(

      Oh dang! Well you know how it goes but you’ve had it before many do. :-)

        I did end up taking advantage of the discount on the Macro Arm lights.

          There you go! How do you like them?

    My GH3 is due to arrive Wednesday, so I might as well get one. I have been keeping an eye out for a discount price for a while, but haven’t seen a trustworthy one.

      Right on Bill. I think you’ll love your GH3. I do order from Amazon and find them to be trustworthy. The link above will bring you to the proper page on Amazon and it helps out SCBP too. :-)

        I’ve got my GH3 and My FL-600R. Now all I have to do is learn how to use them. The FL-600R is very compact compared to the FL-50R.

    How does this work with your G5? Any issues? Is exposure compensation easy to use with this set up?

    • http://giuliosciorio.com Giulio Sciorio

      The flash will work with all G5 functions. Just slide it on the hot shoe and you’re golden. The G5 does not wireless TTL but it will work with all other functions of the flash. BTW you can use a TTL cord for off camera flash as well.

    I am looking for a flash for my GH3, is this the best option? Also, is wireless TTL working with GH3?

    • http://giuliosciorio.com Giulio Sciorio

      It’s a great option for the GH3. I’ve used the Panasonic FL360L on a shoot with the GH3 yesterday and its identical to the FL600R. All wireless TTL functions work 100% since they are the same unit.
