First-time poster... go easy on me :)

I've been using my ZX-M for about six months.  On a recent vacation I took
some photos in extreme, almost overhead, sunlight.  I did what I could when
composing to try and get the sun behind me, but... let's just say the photos
are less than what I'd hoped for.  Lots of shadows on the subjects' faces...
some of them are very underexposed as well (the landscape looks great,
though!).

I'd now like to learn some more about fill-flash.  I understand the basic
concept, but I'm confused about equipment.  My ZX-M came with the AF201SA
flash, but my understanding is that it's not very appropriate for fill
flash.  If I'm wrong, let me know!  Anyway, I'm mostly confused about the
terminology surrounding flashes (manual, auto, TTL, non-TTL) and what will
and won't work with the ZX-M.  Any enlightenment/suggestions on
technique/equipment?

Thanks!
