Like?
I use flash so infrequently
In reply to Eric C, 4 months ago

I don't miss having it attached

When I need flash, it's usually the FL-50r anyway, so it's no big deal to add the baby flash if I want the FL50 remote.

"Incredibly Annoying"? Clearly you have not used the camera on a daily basis.
