Hmm. I don't think it's ugly, I just think it gets in the way. :-) > ..

Panasonic/Leica went with an innovative design, as did Olympus on the E300-330 bodies. But overall the "slr" styling sells better ... it's more traditional and recognizable. A pocketable separate flash unit with a shoe mount and a dedicated remote cord are what I've usually carried, when I carry a flash at all. Add a fold-up bounce/soft box style attachment and I'm in heaven. Most of the time, I don't use flash except at home for tabletop work. Then a big external shoe mount with swivel head, a couple of secondary slave units, lightstands and a flash meter work just fine. ;-) G -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
