I sometimes have the same problem with the AF360. Probably 1/3 to 1/2 of my flash photos are underexposed enough to be objectionable. I'm going to try center weighted metering instead of matrix, and if that doesn't cure the problem, I'll try autoflash instead of TTL flash. It seems to occur randomly and so far I haven't been able find any consistent reason, such as focal length, distance to subject etc. that causes it to occur on a regular basis.
