Fisheye 2 and Coloursplash flash...
Hello guys... i am going to get my fisheye 2 and want to get an external coloursplash flash to go with it. But i realise that the hotshoe on fe2 is attached with the fe viewfinder. So does it mean when i use the coloursplash flash, i will attach the cs on the hotshoe and wun be able to view wat i am going to take? thats weird, gotta imagine wat i taking? someone pls help... thxs!!

yes you cant have the viewfinder and the flash on together at the same time. what you can do is give me the viewfinder. it gives you parallex error whenever you shoot with it anyway. ehehehe. but here's a tip, you have the viewfinder in your hands. use it to find a proper angle for maximum distortion. then after you got ur position, dont move ur eye level and then place the camera in front of your face in such a position that your fisheye camera lenses is in the position of where you held your viewfinder while searching for that desired angle.

or aim from the tip of the cs-flash(there's a rubber part that's protruding out)

hmm, actually i am still nt very sure whether coloursplash flash or ringflash? intend to buy it with fe2... so any comments or reccommendations anyone... ?? keke... :D

ring flash!!! i dono if it differs alot, i jus think fe2 with ringflash is damn cool

the effects of the ringflash isnt much. dont buy it just because it looks cool. save your money and get the colorflash instead. but my suggestion is, dont even get any flash. use daylight, it's better.
