Pentax AF 200FG

I looking to buy a cheap Flash, if anyone has one and I wonder anyone know this will work on my new K-x and how do I know what flash will work without damaging my device??
Thanks!

The AF200FG will work fine with your K-x.

But I personally think it's overpriced for what I can do, or rather, for what it can not do.

I agree, underpowered, and I would never advise anyone to get a flash with a head that cannot be tilted and swiveled.

If you're look for a simple, p-TTL flash for the K-x, the Metz 36 AF-4 for ~$100 is a better option that the Pentax AF200FG.
