MFT and flash photography
#3
Quote:There are a few slightly smaller flash units available, but all in all flashes are more or less the same size for the same GN, mostly due to the fact that the electronics require a few large parts, plus batteries.


The only way to go lighter and/or smaller is LED lights, and those have become very, very good, plus provide a more even lighting, although the really good ones tend to have more volume even if being lighter. The advantage because of their softer lighting and better soft light is that you don't necessarily need indirect "flash".


As to off-camera flash: there actually are options to use Canon flashes with, e.g, Olympus cameras Smile.


Oh, and yes, MFT would do nicely. There are quite a few wedding photographers these days using MFT, with flash, for their jobs.


HTH, kind regards, Wim
I use flash either bounced or as fill flash in daylight, since flashes are merely same size, camera size won't change things a lot, besides a tiny camera won't balance well with a big flash, tried LED, not really what I want, although a circular LED in daylight gives a very beautiful catchlight.

So staying with APS-C
