Nex-5 Flashlight

[Kuo.Chuan]

Hello Nex-5 users,

Warm Greetings!

I am planning to buy a NEX-5 because of its size smaller than SLR which make it easier for my small hands to work on. I am not a pro on flash light and would like to seek some answers here. For a normal SLR which attached with a flash light, it can take high speed shots and the flash light will flash in the same rhythms? I see the Nex-5 comes with a small flash light, will it function the same manner? If not, is there any flashlight you can recommend that is compatible with Nex-5?

Kindly advise

Thank you

Hello Kuo - welcome to the Sony Forums.

I have been investigating flashlights for your NEX-5 and there is one possibility - however I need to confirm availability with some colleagues so I will endeavor to get you an answer as soon as I can.

Thanks

Hello again,

I have been shown this link:

http://www.sony.co.uk/product/dsa-flashes---lights/hvl-f20s

Which states that the flashlight in question should be available mid-August.

Regarding the frequency of the light itself, I would test out the internal flash when taking a sequence of shots first of all to see if this functions satisfactorily. If not, then once this flashlight is released there should be more information available.

Thanks,

Simon
