I own a Samsung NX300 and i need a TTL flashgun for it. I have searched the internet for hours and i can't find a single one to buy.

Metz 26 AF-1 for Samsung is no longer available as far as i can see.

Metz 44 AF-1 for Samsung is no longer available as far as i can see.

Does anybody know where i might be able to find one, or any other make too (must be TTL).

I managed to find 1 or 2 sources for Samsung made flashguns but they are huge in price (almost £500), and i don't want to pay that just so i can have a flashgun for a camera that's a few years old now.

Thanks for any advice.

Ebay.

There are a few SEF15 and 20 (20 seems good, and small) and there are Metz ones, or bigger Samsungs from time to time, a month ago I saw a few nice ones (Metz 44 and the similar NX ones, SEF42?) go for small amounts of money.

Great ty. I found a 20 on ebay - do you know if it would work on a NX300? Samsung's website only says NX200.

Thanks again

This 15 is in Manchester right now!

I am not sure, someone with better knowledge than mine should intervene here, I was considering a SEF20 for my NX1/NX500 but found a Metz 26 and went that way. I like the size and design of the SEF20 though, and it will much nice with the NX300.

There are 4 SEF20 right now on ebay, I have bought from this seller, were alright, and they mentioned your camera in the listing, just mail them.

I would consider the 20 the least acceptable for NX300 (I do not know your use) and equal to the Metz 26 and the SEF42 equal to the Metz 44.

I currently have the Metz 26 (slightly used) and the SEF42 (brand new), haven't done much with them, both seem ok. A friend is going to bring me a Metz 44 on a couple of months, and I will test against the Samsung, I expect very similar output.
