External Flash - Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200 User Manual

External Flash

The use of external flash, either directly attached to the camera hot
shoe, or remotely triggered adds additional lighting control for those
wishing to use just simple, or studio, flash set ups.
Panasonic do a range of TTL (through the lens) compatible flash units
DMW-FL220E – a small unit with a guide number of 22
DMW-FL360E – a larger unit with a guide number of 36 and has a
bounce and swivel head.
DMW-FL360LE - same spec as the FL360E but with the addition of a
LED video light
DMW-FL500E – a full featured flash unit featuring a bounce and swivel
head with a guide number of 50.
The Olympus FL36 (identical to
Panasonic FL360)
With the Olympus FL36, functionally equivalent to the Panasonic FL360,
the head will auto-zoom when you have the head pointing forward.
This means that the flash will select one out of six discreet zoom steps,
12mm, 14mm, 17mm, 25mm, 35mm or 42mm, whichever one is the
most suiting for the FZ200 zoom lens setting.
