I have a Metz 40MZ3i used on Z-1p. Usually I point the flash to the white
ceiling for more natural results and this flash (TTL mode) has never failed
me (quite powerful). But I have found its odd shape with SCA3701 adaptor
does not fit in any of my camera bag well. AF500FTZ (or similar design like
Nikon SB-28) does not have this problem.

>Which flash would be the best for wedding/outdoor (fill flash) photography
>(on Z-1p)? Probably sounds silly, but I have no idea. :( For now possible
>variants are:
>1) Pentax AF500 (reviews are saying that I'd better have a truck with AA
>batteries at the hand)
>2) Sigma EF 500 ST/Super (looks a bit ugly, but if it works well...)
>3) Sunpak PZ5000AF
>4) Metz? expensive ones :(
>Price is important too: $250 is the maximum (ok, if AF500 is _really_
