If you think of it as an equivalent to a 540EZ you're on the right track. Power zoom is just like on the OEM Canon models. It doesn't support e-ttl or FP flash / high speed synch. To get them in a 3rd party flash you need to look at some of the Metz models or the Sigma 430 Super and newly released 500 Super. The other thing I *think* is missing from the Sunpak is flash exposure compensation built into the flash. It does support FEC from EOS bodies though and has built in rear curtain synch, manual power rations etc. I don't remember anything about how the master/slaving worked on the Sunpak, It was too new at the time for the dealers to have much knowledge.
