Flash for Sony RX10
Apr 26, 2014 20:43:16 #
Has anyone had any luck finding a external flash for a Sony RX10. Sony has a couple, but they are really cost prohibitive for me. I spent all my money on the camera, lol. Thanks.

I strongly suggest that you consider a Yongnuo speedlight. Guide Number desired by you, will determine model number:

Strange that you could afford the camera but not a flash, but I'd be real careful about using aftermarket components, because you could end up frying the camera! Btw, they will know what was done when it goes in for service, so such an event would not be covered under the warranty. The few dollars that you are trying to save could end up ruining a very nice camera. Try to wait this one out, until more is known about it.

The Flash that Mike gave the link to looks adequate for $148.00 and B&H is very safe to deal with, in case you're not satisfied.

Thanks, that is what I am going with.

I didn't look at the specs yet, but thanks.
