MikeD70 Posted October 10, 2023 Share #1 Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm sure I am only one of many that have longed for a small fill flash unit for these great cameras. I know, using the words Leica and flash together is a BIG no for most, but here is my wish. The little flash in the picture is from my lowly D-Lux7. It is a great little unit that does it's job very well. So, if anyone from Leica reads these posts, put this one in the suggestion box, please. Welcome, dear visitor!

Mikep996 Posted October 10, 2023 Share #2 Posted October 10, 2023 Why not just use the flash shown in your pic? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried that as soon as the original Q hit the door. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simone_DF Posted October 10, 2023 Share #4 Posted October 10, 2023 Why don’t you get a Godox Lux Junior? It’s small, inexpensive and works great. You’d probably end up paying >300€ or more for a Leica rebadged unit 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD70 Posted October 10, 2023 Author Share #5 Posted October 10, 2023 There are hundreds of cheap, small, manual flash units out there, that isn't the point. Fuji had a little flash, similar to the one for the D-Lux7 several years back, I think I had three of them, kept on in each bag, great little TTL auto units. The Leica branded one above, also a VERY small, TTL/Auto flash. My point is, Leica is a great company, with fantastic cameras, and there should be no reason they can't dedicate one of these little wonders to the Q, or any other system. And, by the way, if it worked correctly, I'd pay the price. I do have a couple of old flash bulb units in the closet, but can't find bulbs for them.😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
