You'll want to double-check compatibility of the flash with your intended camera body. If memory serves, old flashes like the 280T work fine on most newer bodies, but many features on newer flashes like this one may not work on older bodies.
Also, I seem to recall reading somewhere that the 360FGZ was manufactured for Pentax by Sunpak. The battery door on my 360 FGZ is pretty lame. Anyone know who makes the the 540FGZ? --Mark >Mark, > >Thanks for the information.
