Nissin announced the release of the flash Nissin Di466 for the system 4 / 3 and micro 4 / 3. Prior to this outbreak were similar model for the system Canon / Nikon
Guide number – 33, that the power is comparable to the original flash Olympus FL-36, but thanks to four batteries, recharge time is reduced to 4 seconds (after the flash at full power.)
Flash Nissin Di466 has a zoom lens covers an angle of 24-106 mm of EGF, which is more than covers the field of whale lens (28-82 mm EGF).
Naturally, the flash has a TTL automatic adjustments with quick-1.5EV / +1.5 Ev with step 0.5Ev
flash head rotates only in a vertical plane, which still limits the use of indoor shooting.
There is a backlight auto-focus mode and wireless.
Estimated cost – £ 89 / $ 129, which is very bad, considering the high cost of native Olympus FL- 36R (about 11.12 tr.) It seems to me an excellent choice for beginning photographers!

He said again, and say two.
Perhaps the finish at the expense of plug-ins for LightRoom for the first time. On a tip from Di say a few words about Photomatix Pro .
Originally, it was and is a complete program for creating HDR images. But the developers of fellows that did not stop only on stand-alone version and expanded integration capabilities, allowing to associate with PhotoMatix not only PhotoShop, and LightRoom.
Going forward, I would say that is the case with a bright room turned out quite simply … and crooked, that Do …
So, installing the regular version and extracting PhotoMatix plugin folder with LightRoom (mine is C: Program Files Adobe Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.5 Photomatix.lrplugin), find the menu File -> Plug-in Manager, our plug-in.
Configure options exports – that is, format, which will be transferred to RAW-files from LightRoom in Photomatix. This is done in the menu “File-Export”.
