I use my XZ1 with FL36 on hotshoe, no problem.
I will use 3rd party trigger to trigger remote flash and strobes. TTL will not be available.

The FL36R version I'm not sure. Will test and report back later.

Got 3rd party ones to use with the Oly?

Some poison http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=541&t=1984346&p=1

By the way, does the XZ-1 remember its last setting? For example... set to spot metering, take a couple pics, turn off.... turn on again. Will it stay at spot metering or default?

Thanks

bro, it remembers the setting but for one mode only. for example, if i set super macro focus on A mode, change to P mode, the focus mode also change to default.turn off then turn on to A mode again, it stay at super macro. hope that help..

i still got lot to learn from this camera..currently learning to shoot RAW and edit in Lightroom..oh, and i'm still a beginner.. tongue.gif
