anyone used Metz 48 AF-1 on a G1

Pellicle,

I have a Metz 48 AF-1 and use it with my G1. I tested a 2 battery Olympus 36 and it did not recycle quickly. The Metz is a bigger, heavier unit with 4 batteries and recycles quickly. It integrates well with the G1. If I am shooting with my kit lens, and the flash is facing directly at the subject, the flash zooms automatically. I bought a flash diffused that attaches to the head and 4 2900 batteries. I am happy with it. I now do not have to hear my wife say when I am shooting photos of my grandchilden while the flash is recycling: "Take the picture, they have a perfect smile".

Good luck with your decision.

Howard
