Metz ring light with om-d e-m10 + 60mm macro lens

Hello everyone!

I am getting the olympus om-d e-m10 (not the mark ii) with the olympus 60mm f2.8 macro lens. I am wondering what ring flash is best with this combination? Will the Metz 15 MS-1 ring light work well? Thank you!

Works very well. Pop up flash will be master to activate Metz as a remote in TTL mode and camera menu allows exposure compensation if needed.

Metz comes with a 52mm mounting ring so get a 46-52mm step up ring for a few dollars.

It is a very nice combination and one I use a lot.
