yah saw that thread before, bros, i see external flash mounted on a shooter with a trigger, such trigger, how much do they cost? and is there any bro here with any L bracket to recommend? i walked past some shops in funan and asked for L bracket, they only carry those sold with the slaves and look very non reliable, furthermore i think they are more suitable for smaller cameras, not the fz5 or larger due to the length.

thank you!!!

I tried one at MS color months back, seems to be pretty good, you may want to go and check.

However, you will need to fire up your internal flash first before you can trigger on your external flash, where the sensor is built in to the L-bracket.

I used the "flower" lens hood, fired the flash, and it cast a shadow on the picture I took too!

Hi huggable,

U mean U attached the "Flower" lens Hood with the WCON 7/8 with Fill-in Flash or with External Slave Flash ?

Btw .. what is a Flower lens Hood ??

I was trying to illustrate that some of the extension lens/hoods will inevitably cause a shadow on your picture. One of the ways to get round it is like what unseen did, use an external flash.

The flower hood is the lens hood that comes with the FZ-5.

This Flash issue was mentioned in the FZ5 Manual pg. 42.

hey thanks bro JD

yah i understand the one for the L bracket that the sensor is similar to that of a syn eye attachment for the flash which require you to fire off your internal flash first.

i refering to that of a handle like equipment which a flash can be mounted on and the handle part comes with a trigger

btw i was lucky enough to buy the olympus Wcon 08 from a nice bro here together with free tips on improving my shooting skills. thanks

heres a shot using the clens at the airport
an entire booth length more!!!

cheers
