Bob:

Thanks so much for the reply!  That was my second post
to the group, but only my first response back.  I just
checked & yes I do have the AF200T.  It seems from
past memory (I have not shot with this flash in a
while), that the pictures with it were also a little
too harsh.  Do you use a difuser, as it is only a
direct flash, without any tilt?  Or, do you adjust the
power settings to the 1/2, 1/4, etc. settings?

If I rememeber, it seems that I also tended to get
quite a few red-eye shots with this flash.  

I should probably break it out and shoot some to see
how they turn out.

Thanks again for all of your help!
