I'm looking to get a flash for this camera.

I don't need something ultra powerful, that recharges in less time than it takes light to cross the room, but on the other hand don't want something very weak. Looking for something in the middle, fairly portable.

Any recommendations?

I would say go for Godox.

V350 for portability or V860II for greater power.

Both of them use Li-ION battery with fast recycle, support TTL/HSS and quite affordable.

Nissin i60 or di700a

Godox and Yongnuo

Metz

Sony

A powerful flash is a good thing, HSS ability or high speed sync is very helpful when you wish you had it

Design wise I like my flashes to have a metal shoe.

It matters to me I bought the top end Sony. I felt it would be most reliable and I have to have a HV high voltage connection for external battery pack that does not use AA batteries.

While the non Sony brands have options I felt it was going to be a problem with my needs,

For fun I like Nissin flash or Metz. I dont have first hand with the others

No SONY flashes?

Nissin i40 or i60 as someone else mentioned but I now use a Sony HVL-20m for portability which you would probably consider a weak flash.
 
Godox or Adorama Flashpoint R2 (better warranty, same unit).
+1 for Adorama Flashpoint. You can get very sweet deals from time to time.
