I'm not as convinced as others that this is an improvement on the older AF 360 FGZ. At least for my usage. Yes, it is physically better, but it seems much less accommodating of pre-Digital lenses, and of course it doesn't work at all with film cameras. So better built, but considerably less versatile.

Overall this is a pretty good flash, and it has let me get rid of the clumsy AF400T I used to use with my Z1p. (Having said which, for the price you can pick up an AF400T it is still a good flash for certain uses). It has more features than I am ever likely to use. Of course it also works well with my K10D.
I like its small size, and its relatively simple controls. The fact that it works with any Pentax all the way back to the K series is really nice. ( I have a coupe of M series cameras I use occasionally).
But oh dear, Asahi, why can't you design a robust battery cover? At least 50% of the items you have produced since 1984-ish have suffered from this.
