Me too. I have a ZX-M and a Sunpack 383 manual/auto (non-TTL) flash. I like being able to set it at 1/2, 1/4...1/16 power in manual and just add as much light as I think I need. But of course I can just set the aperture on the camera and on the little calculator on the back of the flash to different stops and use automatic mode anyway. I also think as I start trying closeup photography the automatic won't be very reliable since the light will be bouncing back from many other things beside my subject. So if I use flash for closeups I'll need manual mode, although at some point I want a camera with TTL flash. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
