Just got a new AF360FGZ from Adorama...
My very first impression when taking it out of the box was- Gee this is light.
The second was: Gee this feels awfully plastic.
After fiddling with some of the parts-- battery door, 20 mm diffuser, head tilting hinge...
I still think it's mighty plasticky.
I took it for a spin today with my MZ-S, and though I still feel it has nowhere near the build and quality feel of the AF 500 FTZ, it has some very desirable features. I just better be extremely careful with it... I also would like it better if it had a 5P socket on the side of it ala the 500 FTZ. And I wish it would swivel too. I looked at lots of other flashes, and for the money, I could have gotten a 3rd party flash with more power and swivel, but it was the P-TTL feature that sold it for me.
