Recommendations on flash for street photography with A7sii?


Recommended Posts

I'm looking to purchase a low-profile flash for a street photography project i have coming up with the A7Sii. I currently have the  Godox TT685S but that's a bit bulky and intense. I have very little experience with both flash and street photography so this is entirely new territory for me. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!

How will you use the flash? Bruce Gilden style? Anyway, I believe the Nissin i40 is still the go-to flash if you want a small but powerful unit for mirrorless cameras. I've had it for years and I really like it.

Cool. I guess you would need a flash sync cord or wireless trigger, if you're going to hand-hold the flash, like Bruce.

 

I also guess you've done the research and understand the legal and personal safety implications of ambushing people with flash photography? It's quite possible to get arrested or beaten up while doing it.

 

I love Bruce Gilden, both his photos and his personality, but not everyone can pull that off.
