Sony A7 III Speed Light? Which??

Hello, can somebody recommend me a good Speedlight fr my Sony a7 III? I do not have a big budget and was hoping to spend no more than 200£. Would I need a transmitter too with any of the speed lights? Thanks!!!

I have a YONGNUO YN560 IV speedlight which I use with Sony and Canon for all my interior work, probably the best speedlight you can get for £57. You will need a Yongnuo YN560-TX Trigger as well if you want to set off wirelessly but it's only £31 so with your budget you could afford to get 3 speedlights and the trigger.

Hi Domenico, I have a Sony A7iii as well and I bought into the Godox universe. So I have now the Godox AD200 (not the pro version which is more recent) with the standard heads plus the ring flash head and the TT685 speedlight. I am using the x pro s trigger. I bought them over the months so with the exception of the AD200, I never had to spend more then 200€ .
what I like about Godox is that they have quite a complete product lineup and everything works together. Also there are quite a few youtube videos how to get the most out of them.
If you start with the TT685 speedlight, It can be mounted on the camera, no need for a trigger. It is about 130€. The AD200 is for 320€ and the trigger is about 70 or 80€.

Thanks, Chris, what do you think of the Godox v1 Speedlight? any experience with that?

Sorry, no, just the ones I mentioned in my comment above. I actually thought of buying it, but found that I can buy the ring flash head for the AD200 and bought it and the TT685 instead, which is enough as a secondary flash for my needs. ... for now :)
