There’s STILL nothing like it. Oly has chosen water resistance over
versatility, and hard-wired their latest weatherproof ring flash.
Unless you like to hack electronics:

I’ll hack yours for $100, which includes the SMD trigger coil and the rather
expensive plug/cable assembly to fit the FC-1, and slow-boat return shipping to
US or Canada. You supply your own FC-1 and flash head. (There’s no good reason
to hack the twin lights, since they already exist for the FC-1.)
And promise me you’ll actually USE it, and not simply flip it for hundreds more.
If that sounds too expensive, pay me $20/hr, and pay for all the parts and
shipping. I’ll come out ahead that way. :-)
NOTHING quite creates the light that either the T-8 or T-10 (with crossed
polarizer) creates!
