Is the Fuiji EF-20 flash any good?
The price is stupid high too… I have the EF-20 Fuiji flash for my x100 and XP1. It works OK most of the time, but is large and bulky. I ordered the EF-X20 not just because of size, but also because I thought it might offer better EV adjustment.
Why won’t my EF-20 flash turn off?
If the flash is not seated correctly there isn’t any flashlight. A flash lever connection instead of a tightening wheel is needed to better secure the EF-20 and remove uncertainty. The constant on-orange light on the back of the flash is also annoying with no way to shut off.
How do I use the EF-X20 with a tripod?
Since EF-X20 comes with a tripod screw adapter, you can use a tripod to stabilize your flash. For this studio shot of flowers, I set EF-X20 to go off with the slave function at a 45º angle behind the flowers, in addition to the main flash from X100.
