It works well. The only negative is that the flash is not as powerful as I would like. It is great for insect photography or for really up close. Then the power is enough. I captured the image below by underexposing by about 2 stops. Did almost no post processing and think it came out quite well.
I am so glad I purchased this as soon as it came available, and whether coupled with my 60mm macro or 50-200mm+25mm ext tube I am getting great well lit images first time out. The lighting permutations are extensive offering various ratios between the heads or manual outputs down to 1/125th.
I took a big gulp at the price, but bought this flash because I love close up photography, and have found lighting to be challenging. I really love the many combinations of flash you can set for these 2 units, and the results are fantastic!
I have struggled with using regular lights of all kinds for macro photography. The first pictures I took with the STF-8 demonstrated why I needed this product. Results were outstanding. The design is well executed.
Good Points: So easy to useImprovement Points: Nothing
very good for macro photography to have camera and flash talking to each other makes flash easier.
Good Points: Superb, compact, relatively light, extremely flexible.Improvement Points: Easy to use in fully automatic and manual mode. Haven’t yet sorted how to use it Aperture priority and shutter priority
Good Points: The product has been very well thought out by Olympus and its case and internals are exceptional.I am unfamiliar with flash and so it is too soon for an in-depth review from me. But I bought it because it is marketed as very simple to use.
Good Points: Easy to use and understand controlsImprovement Points: None so far
Oly did the bare minimum necessary to make this flash competent but nothing to actually make it usable on M4/3 bodies.I flash does work flawlessly and even well with focus bracketing but ergonomically it is a disaster and a tiny amount of attention from Oly could have solved that (if they cared).
