Plans for astro trip to Canary Islands thwarted by viral evilness but not 
before traded up (from Mk2 ) to E-M1 Mkiii  which does AF astro which Marnie 
would like. 

Surprise!--- no baby flash in the box.  I did not research as usual to nth 
degree it seems. 

 FL-LM3 is quite small but bounces---GN 30 ft at ISO 100.  It doesn't quite 
make consistent contact on Panny GM5 but used it a few times on both .

My Metz in auto mode for mysterious reasons is not great on Sonnie, Oly digital 
or Panny--durn near perfect on Canyon or OM--using standard foot on auto or 
TTL. 


I have one of the below cuties in the Flashpoint flavor (Adorama brand of 
godox)  It is still quite small but much larger than the LM3 but has more 
useful GN 118 ft ISO 100. they only use two AA's and recharge time is <6sec if 
you are lucky.

Now mission creep:    I see the same one with Li ion battery with recycle time 
much improved.

I don't think  the TT350 like ones allow for cross platform TTL like all the 
other models.  There is a standard sized and more powerful Godox/Flashpoint for 
not much more that does cross platform TTL if have the proper transmitter. .  

I have been waiting for a flash of insight but it hasn't happened, so thought 
I'd better check here.

Waiting for the light, Mike
