What Customers Say About Olympus FL-20 Electronic Flash for SP series, C5000, C750, C770, C5060, C7070, C8080, E1, E300 & E500 Digital Cameras:

This flash works great with your Olympus E-P1 or E-P2. Although not advertised, if you check out the Olympus support web page, you will see that this flash is fully compatible with the E-P1 and E-P2. Short and sweet review. It costs less than the FL-14 flash, is smaller, sits higher above the lens for less red-eye, and if you have the silver E-P1 or black E-P2 it looks better too.

I am happy and completely satisfied with this product. After looking on Amazon.com for the same flash, I happily found the SAME flash for a resonable price. When I found out the price of this flash from Olympus I did not want to pay as much for the flash than I paid for the camera. The flash is excellent and works flawlessly. I wanted this flash to compliment and improve my Olympus 350 Digital camera. The built in flash was inadequate for some of the photos that I wanted to take. The service and delivery of the flash was fast.

Exposures were perfect because the flash worked with the cameras TTL metering system via the FLCB01 cable. Down the road I did up grade to the more powerful FL-50 flash, but for most over your average family and friends type picture taking sessions the Olympus FL-20 is all the flash you will ever need. Red eye was also eliminated because by using the flash grip I offset the axis of the flash beam away from the axis of the camera lens. To eliminate this problem and mount the light source as far away as possible from the lens I decided to buy the Olympus FL-20 Flash unit, the FL-BK01 right angle flash bracket, and the FLCB01 TTL sync cable to electrically connect the flash to the camera. It runs on 2 AA batteries.

Because of this every shot I took had a big black half circle shadow across the bottom of the frame. The FL-20 flash had greater output and greater coverage than the built in flash. You can even stand a little further back from the subject when shooting because the higher light output of this unit gives you greater reach. I used the flash with the rechargeable type AA batteries.I was very happy I bought this unit and on my indoor picture taking sessions it became the standard fare for me as far as equipment was concerned. I bought this flash originally to use with my Olympus C-700 UZ camera because I had found that when using the Olympus wide-angle converter lens on my camera, the diameter of the wide-angle lens was so large that it blocked off the beam from the cameras built in flash.

Once I started using this set up I immediately started getting the results I needed right away. The FL-20 even comes with a little snap on diffuser lens you can use to widen the area of coverage of the flash beam.

It is nice and small and so much better than the pop up flash on the camera. Works great on my Olympus Camedia 8080 wide. It charges fastn and has good battery life and has a detachable diffuser on the flash in package.

It works as advertised to add more shooting distance over the camera's build-in flash. It would be ridiculous to drag along a large flash unit that's bigger than the camera itself. This is a light weight flash unit for Olympus cameras. I bought this one because my Olympus digital camera is also light weight.
