Flash for NX-10?

Hello. I'm trying to find a flash unit that will work with my NX10. Are there any "real" units, with tilt/swivel, that are available? Thanks for your help.

My NX11 manual refers to the SEF20a and SEF42a OEM flashguns which are probably what you'd want, unless you're prepared to work manually, in which case a generic (non-dedicated) gun of appropriate power should be adequate, the hot-shoe on the NX cameras seems to be of a "standard" size.

Unfortunately the larger unit is unavailable- except for one on eBay for $400. No thanks.

If you didn't like that one you certainly won't fancy this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224820645356?hash=item34585acdec:g:AGQAAOSw4wxh-1uF

Where do these people get their ideas from?

You could have better luck with Metz. They produced fully functional (TTL) flashes for Samsung NX cameras (do pay attention that they are not for GX).
FWIW I bought a reasonably priced second hand Metz 44 af-1 from Poland and it works great (it has swivel which is not on SEF42A).

+1 for Metz, I have the 26 af and it's great. Unsure if it does everything the op wants though.
