Mcoplus320 TTL Flash Speedlite GN 32 for Panasonic Lumix DMC GF7 GM5 GH4 GM1 GX7 G6 GF6 GH3 G5 GF5 GX1 GF3 G3 / for Olympus OM-D E-M5 II

This flash seems to appear with a number of 'makes' on it, but all are a MK-320 model. Bought this on a warehouse deal (a modest discount) and have so far tried it out on my OM-D E-M1. The TTL function works perfectly and my exposures were all exactly where I wanted them to be, so I am really please with this flash and looking forward to using it more.What pleased me even more was that it came packaged in a really useful box, a stand, case and diffuser were included (I always use a flash diffuser) and the translated into English instructions weren't bad either, I could understand them at least.This is a surprisingly well made flash and looks as if it were made for my OM-D camera, the guide number of 32 is more than adequate for my particular needs and it does the swivel and bounce stuff too....while a dedicated Olympus flash would be 'nice' the price is far too high and this flash offers just as much for a much lower cost.....I seem to be using a number of non-Olympus accessories with my Olympus kit.This will replace a Metz flash in my bag....the Metz looked a bit silly on my OM-D and made my rig top heavy, with arthritic hands I have to think about these things.....plus I now get a bit more space in my bag too as this flash is about a third of the size of the Metz monster.ON reading reviews it looks as if this flash works on ALL Olympus/Panasonic micro four thirds (M43) cameras, so if you have more than one M43 camera, this is a very useful item and with regard to this MEIKE branded version, it is superb value for money.

It's a great little flash on my OM-D. If you think your little flash that comes with the camera is a little under powered, then this speedlite is pretty useful. It has full TTL support so you can just leave it in auto and it just does it brilliantly. However, if you are used to or expecting to perform like a bigger more professional unit, this isn't one. The refresh cycle is turtle-like slow. It takes a good 3-4 seconds in between flashes. It's not weather sealed so don't take it out in the rain, the included diffuser is a little loose and easily drops out if not careful.

Overall, this is a great little flashgun. Comes in a nice box, with an instruction manual, warranty card, a soft case, foot stand and diffuser cover. No batteries (which are 2x AA). It is also supplied with a lens pen. Unexpected, but nice.The flash itself is well built, has a screw locking foot and a illuminated LCD display. If you use rechargeable batteries then you can plug in a micro-USB cable and it will charge them! I like this feature.It says it's for Panasonic Lumix, but works with both my Panasonic and Olympus m43 camera's.TTL seems accurate, or at least as accurate as most TTL systems, which means you have to under-expose slightly to make it look a little more natural. The flash both swivels and bounces, bouncing off the ceiling gives a nicely soft light. The only downside is that the flash doesn't rotate all the way around, which makes it a little difficult to bounce off a wall behind you. But to be honest, that's the only negative I can see with this flash.I'm now going to get one for my Fuji X100s, it's a bit of a bargain.

Well what a top quality item! From the box on I was amazed. The finish of the flash easily humbles my 2y/o German made Metz. The buttons look like they belong on a premium stereo.It's a lovely fit on my FZ1000 bridge camera; most flashes are clumsy and overly large.The diffuser is supplied and saves you a tenner.The TTL is fine and works flawlessly on my camera; as does the flash power adjustment. Nice smart, clear display.Very modern and useful features such as the video light and full rotate and swivel, plus usb charging, are most welcome and handy.The battery door is very smart indeed and puts the Metz to shame. What a premium little unit this is.This greatly exceeds my expectations, even after all the great reviews, and indeed is also better than I dared hope.Trust me, you don't need GN99 on a unit that you left in your bag because it's too heavy. 32 is absolutely grand with modern ISOs and you can leave it on the camera all the time.

Works well on an EM1. Better than the bundled unit, but obviously lacks the welly of my FL-50. Bought as a carry around flash and fulfils this purpose well. Two AA batteries mean that they need replacing relatively frequently. Bounce capability (more limited movement than the FL-50) is useful, although power is obviously down and the ISO has to be pushed. TTL about as accurate as my FL-50, but up to +2ev can be needed in bounce mode. Useful add-on diffuser, but again robs the unit of effective power.

Well made, well packaged, but doesn't work correctly with a Lumix G1 camera. To be fair, this isn't listed in the product description, but it is a M4/3 body and almost every other G-series camera is listed so I assumed it would work with the G1. There is no warning that it's not compatible with some M4/3 bodies. Using TTL it underexposes by about 2eV, with the amount depending on the ISO setting. Using the S2 mode to trigger off the camera's built-in flash, it fires the pre-flash but not the main flash. It may well work perfectly with other bodies.

I bought this with a certain amount of trepidation as I had no experience of this make before. I need not have worried, as soon as I saw the box I knew I was not going to be disappointed. It is a solid and well made piece of kit and comes with a diffuser and a bag to keep it in. The display is clear and it is good to handle. I bought it for my Lumix FZ200 so I guessed it could only be used in manual mode. I was right but as I don't do much flash photography it didn't bother me. It is just the right size for the camera and handy to carry around in your pocket or slip into your wife's handbag!I would thoroughly recommend it and am extremely pleased with it.
