Olympus FL-14 ships for around $100

A trio of 3rd-party sellers at Amazon are offering the Olympus FL-14 flash for around $100. These are Cameta Camera, Electronics Expo and Willoughby's. Price and availability is as always as of the time of writing and it is not updated magically.

This came out of our just-refreshed Olympus E-P1 stock-status matrix. The camera kits themselves remain steady at the $800 and $900 price-points. Olympus has yet to discount them!

For more on the E-P1, be sure to check its list of reviews, and also its mini-blog.
