Smallest/lightest h-shoe flash with manual variable output?

<p>I really need to pick up the lightest/smallest possible flash that has manual/variable power output (low GN is fine), a tough call I know :)<br>

I do not know current options in the market.. Any insights appreciated!</p>

the flashes below are rather small models with variable power output. I've never used the Nikon, but the Leica is a great little flash. I've used the (now discontinued and replaced by the SF-24D) SF-20 once with a big shoot-through-umbrella and the tiny strobe saved my day.<br>

- Nikon SB-30 (58.5 x 83.5 x 36 mm and 92 g without CR-123a-batterie) - 3 manual power settings (full, 1/8, 1/32 - additional +-1/2-stop flash level output compensation ), slave function, wide-angle-diffusor<br>

- Leica SF-20 (66 x 109 x 40 mm and 180 g without the 2 CR123a batteries) - 4 manual power settings (full, 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8)</p>

<p>Hope this helps, georg</p>

<p>Thanks Alex/Starvy/Georg.<br>

I should close the loop here -- after a lot of research into current options I settled for Sunpak PF20XD which is unique in its class.<br>

I also picked up the Metz 15 MS-1 wireless TTL ringflas and am very happy with it.</p>
