Now the only choice is Flashpoint R2 Pro and Godox X2T (have to tape off contact for single pin).
...and the Godox XPro-P.
And TIL the
Elinchrom Skyport Pro. Huh.
No Profoto Air, or Broncolor TRS2.2, though (which looks to be heavily based on the Godox X1T, but is definitely not an X1T because it controls Broncolor lights, and is a transceiver.) No PocketWizard TTL.
We'll see if that aims-to-be-universal
Fusion TLC Raven transmitter eventually works for anybody but Nikon...

Godox would probably be a good system to go with, if you plan on being a multi-system shooter.
Sony peculiarities with Godox: Sony has one big bug with Godox off-camera flash: TTL underexposes with aperture settings wider than f/4. Most users compensate with FEC and complain bitterly on messageboards about it.
Also, banding can happen with EFCS (electronic front curtain shutter), and the flash mode setting on the camera has to be set to "Fill" (and of course, wireless flash settings need to be turned off, since they're for Sony's WL smart optical scheme). Mirrorless usual flash trip-ups apply: electronic/silent curtain disables flash altogether. And the AF-assist light probably won't work (IR/UV filter over the main sensor). Otherwise, pretty much the same as for everyone else.
