Decent (portrait/indoor) flash for Sony A7

Hiya! Any recommendations for a nice flash for the Sony A7 series?

I currently own an A7iii, but I'm debating an upgrade to the A7iv or A7v whenever it's released. I mostly shoot with my Sony 40mm G, Tamron 35-150mm, and Tamron 17-28mm.

Links to good buying guides would be great, too! (not AI generated slop recapping Amazon's top 10)

Budget is rather arbitrary as long as price/quality is upheld.

Godox have a pretty decent line of TTL flashes and TTL triggers for their entire flash line up. I personally own a Godox TT350S and I'm pretty happy about it for simple portrait and party photography. For studio photography I'd pick a trigger and dedicated studio flash (I tried to work with a second TT350S but it is not as convenient and powerful)

I'd advice you to research guide numbers to get an idea of how powerful you need your flash to be for your desired focal length.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll check those out. Just as a personal nitpick I'll look for one of their models with USB-C as opposed to micro-USB to be a bit more future proof.
