Off Camera Flash options for Q2.

Others than Leica labeled, Anyone know any?

I’m looking for TTL, sensor on the transmitter will work.

Don’t have a Q yet, but hope to.

Thanks

I’ve got a godox lux junior that I use but also have a SF-40 and Metz flash and use all with a sync cord - if it’s just straight up flash the godox is super cheap and reliable and you can adjust the power really easy

Leica and TTL flash is oxymoron. Even made for Leica on camera ones are so-so. And here is no third party TTL flashes for Leica . Simply because at LCAG they have no idea how modern TTL flash should be implemented in camera firmware. Instead they push for overpriced optics with large aperture. The 193x vintage approach. 🙂

hey Kofee: I supposed you've tried and have test results to share with all Leica TTL flash units on all Leica cameras that support TTL flash metering to support your blanket condemnation? 🤔 🤣

Personally, I don't use flash enough to bother with buying (or testing) dedicated, matched TTL units. I use a flash meter and try a few exposures with a digital camera to establish proper exposure ... that's usually enough. And if I want the final result to be film, I then transfer the settings to the film camera and shoot away. When I had my photo business, I did a whole lot of tabletop that way. 😀
