..with an OMD? Does it slave properly?
and... is the same unit actually compatible with the Leica M9?
TIA

I use the 58 with my E-M5 it works flawlessly in mounted, and in wireless.
As for its Leica compatibility, I have no clue, although I would imagine since it states it works for Oly, Pana, and Leica it would work just fine, but that is an assumption, and we know how those can go
It is well-documented that the 58s do not work flawlessly with the E-M5. As one example, the 58 AF-2 doesn't work in RC Manual mode with the E-M5, whereas it seems to work fine in RC TTL and Auto modes. A lot of us are awaiting a firmware update from Metz.

It works flawlessly for me in the modes I use it in, when using manual I have never used it, I go with far more practical RF triggers.
Thank you for pointing out that one mode doesn't work.
What's even more practical than that: being able to dial manual exposure from the camera, rather than having to walk over to the flash and dial in manually in dumb slave mode. Plus, RF triggers don't allow for FP mode, needed for many daylight uses.

And I would say thats why I use a voice activated remote that doubles as a light stand

I wish oly would come up with a system like the new canon ?
downside to non radio they just dont work reliable I still like them and I love the rear screen control of the OMD but wish it could be radio for reliability
Oh that's a nice model of stand, you can't just buy one anywhere
Plus besides paying them you have to feed them etc...
Here's an inexpensive solution. Use the Oly RC interface but with radio range and reliability. I have one transmitter & two receivers - works great.

kinda like the radio popper idea
says not sure about oly though
also want a on camera also at the same time one day maybe
for now I have both pocketwizard stuff and phottix which is working out nicely on the OMD
manual triggers but my on camera can do TTL if I want so can just flick on and off the OCF with a press of a button
so far working out pretty good

Have you used the high speed sync much? (FP mode)
If it works as advertised it's a killer great feature.
