Leica M, Leica S, Leica SL, Leica CL

My main issue is flash. The SF58 and I are simply not friends. Sometimes I get decent results but not because I control the thing but because I get lucky.
I set the flash to HSS-TTL but I have no clue on how best to set the camera (P, A, or M, and if M, what M?).
Any tips are much appreciated.
In terms of lenses, I thought the 120 (for when I need some reach), the 70, and the 35.
Thanks.

Georg,
I’m not a wedding shooter, but here are settings that I’d recommend (assuming the event is indoors):
SF-58 on TTL-HSS (preferably bounced if ceiling height allows)
S2 on M, f/4 or f/5.6 @ 1/90th, ISO 320 (for more ambient available light feel, but less DOF, you could open up to f/2.8)
I’d probably stick to the 35 and 70 lenses, and perhaps the 120 if you need more reach
