Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Perfectly matched for all Olympus digital cameras with external flash synchronization, the high-performance compact flash FL-40 further extends the possibilities of digital photography with GN40 power at tele and GN26 at wide. Featuring four flexible flash modes, settings can be made manually or automatically using its internal sensor. Also extremely versatile, it covers all aperture and lens settings from f=21 mm wide-angle shots to f=80 mm tele-shots. A recycling time of between 0.2 and 8 seconds, depending on batteries, means sequence shots can easily be taken.

4 out of 5 stars FL-40 can fit with E-410 / E-510 ?   November 11, 2007

2 out of 5 stars overpriced, incompatible with too many Oly & Panas cameras   February 21, 2007
I bought this thinking it was a mid priced version in the FL-36, (-40) -50
line with similar TTL capabilities. My Oly C-2100UZ could not use TTL with it,
then my Panasonic Lumixes DMC-FZ-10 and now -50 can't either, although
they, apparently can use the other two units with TTL.

At the price (around $400 in about 2001) it should have been at least as
TTL compatible as its stablemates. Pretty much only a thyristor auto
and manual flash -- inexcusable when it links with the unique Oly
data cable via OLY FL-BK01 Flash bracket..
Make certain your specific camera is compatible; don't just guess that
it ought to or someone says it should.



4 out of 5 stars This works with the Camedia E-10, perfectly.   January 5, 2001

On the E-10, this flash is completely automatic. It adjusts appropriately throughout the zoom range. The light spread is also extremely even from edge to edge, and in the corners. The only reason I don't give it 5 starts is that is hasn't the recycle speed of many flashes in this price range. But, you can't beat the quality at any price. I also love the pivoting head. Plus, it also works in tandem with the built-in flash. A real advantage.

I love this thing.


4 out of 5 stars The ONLY flash for the C-3030   October 31, 2000
 41 out of 41 found this review helpful

The FL-40 flash is the ONLY flash that really works correctly with the C-3030Z camera. If you buy it however be sure and also get the FL-BK01 handle and FL-CB01 cable! Since the 3030 doesn't have a hot shoe like the C-2500 does. (they'll set you back another $90 or so!) This flash upgrades your digital camera for some serious photography, it is adjustable in 30 degree increments for 270 degree pointing (full right to straight back going counter clockwise). Vertically it has five steps, 0, 45, 60, 75, 90 degrees (straight up). Comes with a "wide angle" lens (more disperse flash). Recharge time is ok with 4 NiMh batteries but I was disappointed at the lack of an external power jack. For long setups it would be nice to run from wall power. The on-board sensor works with the camera's flash in a zillion ways, the display is easy to read and setup is pretty straight forward. With the handle and flash the camera gets to be a bit bulky.
