I have to say, the flash performed pretty damned well given all the

I have to wonder about your definition of scantily clad though.
Aside from bare legs, the only way that girl in your shot could be
more covered would be with a burka.

That's odd about the shoe slippage. Did you rotate the locking lever
to the right? When you do that a pin drops from the flash and slides
into a hole in the shoe where it should prevent the removal of the
flash.
Maybe your 3rd-party flash doesn't have that lever.

I just checked and it doesn't appear to have one. It just has the
wheel-type fastener that you turn to tighten the flash down onto the hot
