Nick Wright pointed to recent Nikon small flash SB-400 which is very small and tilts (no swivel, but that's OK. If it does not tilt, there is no reason to use it in lieu of the pop-up. When I say small, I mean "pocketable"). And it uses only two AA's which means "light". I wish Pentax would offer a similar flash for carry around, and grab shots. But as I said, the fact that Nikon offered this indicates that there are enough people in this world who want this type of clip on slash, although I am sure it is meant for an entry level. But this flash alone does not convince me to switch to Nikon :-). Ken -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
