Default Re: Photographing children

From what I've read that FL-36 isn't going to cut it. As I'm sure you've found out, even with fresh batteries the recharge time it horrid. You'd be better off with a FL-50. More expensive, but with 4 AA's it lasts and recharges much faster. As another alternative that's less expensive , you might check out a Metz 48 AF-1 for Olympus. They're hard to find, but well worth the $200 or so.
