So again, thanks a lot for your answers.

A Godox TT350-c is a good option for a small bounce flash. A Canon 430EX ii, used, is also a good choice. I got one from B&H in "like new" condition for $125. My brand new Godox (also from B&H) was $84.

Similarly, the 580EX ii can be found in good condition for about $120 from stores like Robert's on EBay. Mine works great, although it is a good bit bigger than the Godox 350 or Flashpoint Mini. FYI the Flashpoint brand at Adorama is just Godox rebranded.

580ex is massive on an RP.  I’d go 430EX or smaller.  ISO noise on the RP is good enough that using 800 barely looks different from 100, so you don’t need a monster flash.  I like the EL-100 for RP personally.
