Hey I've been enjoying playing with my new GX7.

I'm interested in doing strobist portrait work. What is the cheapest high speed sync setup for my gx7? It has to be able to wirelessly fire (with radio) and I'm completely open to off brands (like Neewer and such)

thanks

Radio is your limiting factor if you want high speed sync (aka HSS aka FP). For true FP over radio, Aokatec is the only option (Aokatec home page , amazon link). I've good things about it, but don't have it.

If you don't mind optical remote FP, there are a lot of cheap options as well as the Oly/Panny options.

Me, I use manual flash with radio, mostly (YN560 III and Tx), but if I need TTL/FP, it's on camera or with TTL cable (rare and almost never, respectively).
