Is it compatible with my Olympus or Panasonic camera?
Yes, the Olympus FL-36 is compatible with the Olympus and Panasonic TTL system, so it will work correctly with cameras that use this system. To be sure, we recommend checking specific compatibility with your model on the manufacturer's datasheet.
What does the guide number 36 mean?
The guide number (GN) indicates the power of the flash. A GN of 36 (in meters, at ISO 100) means it can adequately illuminate a subject at a distance of up to 36 meters with an aperture of f/1.0. In practice, the higher the guide number, the greater the reach or ability to use smaller apertures.
Does the rotating head allow bouncing light?
Yes, the head of the Olympus FL-36 is rotating, allowing you to aim the flash at ceilings or walls to bounce light and achieve softer, more natural lighting, avoiding harsh shadows.
Does it include any kind of warranty?
Yes, as a second-hand product from Camera Market, it includes a warranty (6, 12, or 24 months depending on the option chosen) and has passed a technical inspection to ensure proper operation.

Full condition scale
Each unit is inspected at 28 points and graded honestly. Here's how we translate each level so you know what to expect:
Barely any signs of use. Almost flawless aesthetics and perfect operation.
Light marks from normal use. Optically clean and fully functional.
Visible signs of use (scuffs, marks, brassing). Works perfectly.
Not guaranteed for use: sold for parts or repair.
Why buy used?
Depreciation is already absorbed: the same gear for much less than new.
Many classics and discontinued gems only exist today on the used market.
28-point inspection and 6-month warranty included on every unit.
Extending the life of a camera avoids manufacturing and transporting a new one.
