Olympus TTL flash trigger?

[Bogdan]

This seems like a very interesting option, albeit a very expensive one.

I have been thinking of getting the Nauticam flash trigger for the Olympus E-M1 but it does not support TTL, unlike the o-Turtle option above.

I have to admit, my main motivation is the horrendous battery life of the E-M1 with the native flash, but TTL control is definitely an interesting advantage.

I really don't know if that justifies the price difference between the Nauticam flash trigger for Olympus and this o-Turtle. I imagine with it being so new on the market, there is little first hand experience.....

Thoughts?

Damn, why so expensive? They shouldn't cost that much to manufacture. If they lowered the price they would sell more of them.
