same dilemma here, I would like to try an external flash,
my purpose would be the following:
-try the strobist single light tingy (experience earn the P-TTL, then go Manual)
-better fill flash (though I really like to shoot at ambient)
-want to maximize my kit lenses (specially in low light environment)
-preferably a durable flash
on the other hand,
on k-r, any external flash would we cumbersome since k-r doesn't have any batt grip, ( I am pampered using a light set-up with my pancakes)
If I can get a Pentax 540 and a Metz 58v1 both pre-loved and the same condition, which is a better buy? (I heard the Metz has some issues re slave/wireless thing, Is that really a drawback?)
Thanks
