Hello Jeff,

I'm going to be doing a bunch more testing of the AF400T.  Seems to
overexpose, but consistently.  I'll try the mentioned shooting at 400
ISO along with exposure compensation.  From my first tests, seems that
I will probably end up just using exposure compensation once I nail
down how far over the exposure is.  Another option is to use the
sensor on the flash and just use Auto mode.

Anyway, I'll post my findings.

Best regards,
Bruce
