[Leica] IMG: Wayback Photos - Edward R. Farber House View & Examples

Nathan, the little flash that comes with the X-T2 works fine.  I use it 
indoors at kid's birthday parties.  Try it, you'll like it.

One of the boxes contained the boxes for various cameras and lenses. Since the new house is smaller than the rented one in which we lived before, I have to cull a certain number of items, and those boxes were among them. Before putting them in the paper recycling bin, I made sure there was nothing useful inside, and lo and behold—one of the Fuji boxes (either the one for my X-T2 or X-E2) contained a tiny little flash which I had never bothered removing from the box. I did keep it, just as a curiosity, although I do not expect to make any use of it.
