Product Description
The FL-14 is an easy-to-operate external flash with a design that matches the E-P1. With an equivalent GN (Guide Number) of 14, you can accomplish flash shooting with stable light and optimum brightness. Compatible with all Olympus DSLR and point-&-shoot cameras equipped with integrated hot shoes.A stylish metal finish of the optional FL-14 flash gives the camera a retro-look reminiscent of the classic Olympus Pen F. The FL-14 matches perfectly to the external design of the E-P1 and it expands the oppertunities not only under low light conditions, but gives also creative options in nearly every situation. The Fl14 is optimized for use with Micro Four Thirds camera models, such as the Olympus PEN E-P1. Guide number 14 (ISO 100) Use two AAA batteries (recommended - alkaline or NiMH rechargeable)

3 out of 5 stars flash should still be build-in   February 10, 2010
benc (USA)
light index is a bit low for a external flash, more like a build-in flash. but it's size is great, and it uses 2 AAA battery. The build quality is nice but it's not very durable as the silver metal casing is very thin and easily dimpled, specially on the bottom side of the actual light unit. The thin silver metal portion of mine has bended inside. the auto mood of the flash gives way too bright flash, i just use the TTL which is a bit in the bright side also, I usually dial down the flash a step. The auto white balance is not working when attaching the flash, need to manually set to flash mode. over all it's a good little flash, some people even loved the look of it attached. But I think there should be one build-in. used on EP-1.




3 out of 5 stars So so flash   January 25, 2010
Terry Weldon (Austin, Texas)
In view of the pen's performance at high ISO's, this flash is minimally useful. Still, fill-flash can come in handy .


3 out of 5 stars FL-14 Flash   January 7, 2010
NightOwl (Ontario,Canada)
This flash looks nice but the quality of the pictures is just okay (more like with a P & S camera's flash). Also, it drains batteries very quickly so make sure to invest in rechargeables right away (we bought 6 (you only really need 4, so you always have 2 charged up) rechargeable batteries and a charger for $35; the 6 Duracells we went through in the first few days cost $12, so invest in the rechargeables right away to save money). Although the flash isn't the best flash out there, it's probably the best one for the Olympus E-P1 (at least looks-wise), so for $99, I'd recommend getting it.

I took several pictures with it and the pictures look flat... So I have been taking pictures without this flash...

It's as good as any of the flashes normally built into a DSLR. Pretty good, but nothing spectacular.
