I bought the EF-X500 flash and I like its ergonomics, robustness, power and feature set.
Like many, I would have preferred R/F wireless TTL but it simply was not designed that way and we'll just have to live with IR, unless someday, Pocket Wizard...
There are two items that IMHO are missing in order for Fuji to have a complete Off-Camera Flash offering:
1- A genuine Fuji TTL extension cord for being able to use a single flash with a near camera umbrella or soft box or with flash brackets such as this RRS WPF-QR2:
2- A TTL wireless flash controller similar to the Nikon SU-800, hopefully smaller, lighter and cheaper, which would not require us to get an extra EF-X500 just for acting as a controller.
I know that the Canon Extension Cord will work but still...
Anyone agrees ?
Season's Greetings,
