Dustproof, splashproof, freezeproof to -10°C
The FL-700WR features dustproof, splashproof, freezeproof performance to -10℃. When paired with the excellent reliability of the OM-D E-M1X, E-M1 Mark II, or E-M5 Mark II, the system can handle any scenario.
High-speed recycle time
The FL-700WR features a short charging time of approximately 1.5 seconds[1] even at full output, resulting in a short wait time and easier shooting. At 1/16 output when using 10 fps tracking sequential shooting, the flash can fire[2] for more than 50 frames.
1 When using AA nickel metal hydride batteries (Ni-MH). Approximately 2.5 seconds when using alkaline batteries.
2 Only when using AA nickel metal hydride batteries (Ni-MH), and E-M1X, E-M1 Mark II mechanical shutter
Use as a wireless radiowave communication commander or receiver
This flash supports wireless radiowave communication. This enables stable communication even in bright outdoor conditions and in places where there are obstructions. Communication is possible up to 30 meters. The flash is equipped with both a commander and receiver.
*Supported cameras: E-M1X, E-M1 Mark II, E-M1, E-M5 Mark II, and Olympus PEN-F (as of January, 2019)
Supports up to 3 groups, unlimited multi-flash shooting
Multi-flash unit photography is possible with up to three flash groups. An unlimited number of flash units can be connected.
Scan to detect unused channels

Easily adjust the output with a single hand

Advanced basic functions
Super FP flash
This sync mode enables flash photography even when using a high-speed shutter that exceeds the synchronisation speed of the camera. This feature can be used to open the aperture for defocusing the foreground or background even when using fill-in flash in bright outdoor conditions.
First curtain and second curtain sync
In addition to the normal first curtain sync, second curtain sync is supported for firing the flash right before the shutter closes. Using slow sync makes it possible to express a natural dynamism for moving subjects.
TTL flash
This sync mode lets the camera automatically control the flash output using the brightness of light passing through the lens. When switching to manual mode after firing the flash once using TTL flash, it is possible to retain the TTL flash output[1].
*1 Only for on-camera use
Video LED light
This flash is equipped with an LED light for recording videos. It can also be used as an AF illuminator.
