Flash

Speedlights, triggers, and small on-camera lighting.

For small mirrorless kits, a useful speedlite is short on the hot shoe, roughly 200–300 g ready to shoot, and still offers TTL and HSS when you need fill in daylight. The FlashQ Q20II further down is lighter and simpler (manual, lower GN) when absolute minimum size matters.

Compact TTL speedlights (mirrorless-friendly)

Section titled “Compact TTL speedlights (mirrorless-friendly)”

Mount-specific variants exist (TT350C Canon, TT350N Nikon, TT350F Fujifilm, TT350S Sony, TT350O Micro Four Thirds). The TT350 speaks Godox 2.4 GHz X radio for master/slave with larger Godox lights.

AA-powered “mini” Thinklite: easy spares when travelling; full-power recycle is slower than Li-ion compact flashes.

Guide number36 (m, ISO 100 @ 105 mm)
Zoom24–105 mm (auto / manual)
Head−7° to 90° tilt, 270° swivel
TTL / HSSTTL, ±3 EV FEC; HSS to ~1/8000 s
RadioBuilt-in Godox X, ~30 m, master/slave, 3 groups
Power2× AA (Ni-MH recommended); ~210 full-power pops (typ., good Ni-MH)
Recycle~0.1–2.2 s
Size / weight140 × 62 × 38 mm; 200 g (no batteries)

Godox also sells the Li-ion Ving V350 (faster recycle, longer radio range). In practice the body is taller (~150 mm vs ~140 mm on TT350) and too bulky on small mirrorless cameras for everyday carry—TT350 or Nissin i400 balance better.

Very compact shoe flash aimed at mirrorless and light DSLRs; two control dials instead of a large LCD—fast to operate once learned.
