• Change the way you shoot
  I have been an amateur SLR shooter for a while now. This past summer I picked up the AF360 after taking many disappointing shots at a wedding and crushing my K100D's batteries using the pop-up flash.
  My initial impression was shock - the manual for the flash is about as big as that of my camera!! There is an astounding number of settings in this little package, but fortunately the camera and flash work together perfectly in 'auto', so immediate reading is not necessary.

• Good flash for Pentax "Strobists"
  If you've got a Pentax dSLR, this is the flash you're looking for. I really agonized whether to go with a cheaper flash to use off camera with an optical slave triggered by the on camera flash, or go ahead and get the 360, which would provide me with more options, especially when used on camera.

• Great Beginner Flash
  The Pentax AF 360 FGZ is an excellent beginner flash for anyone interested in shooting indoors or using light in more creative ways, and I highly recommend it.

  I use my AF 360 with a Pentax K10D, and have noticed a dramatic improvement in my indoor photography when using this flash.... more info

• Versatile, But Not Powerful
  This flash is far better than the on-camera flash, in that it does extend the range a little, and adds an enormous amount of versatility and control over lighting the subjects. My problem is it's range - although it is a basic flash, I tried shooting subjects no more than 16ft away and it had problems lighting them up properly.
  At first I thought it was my camera or my partial inexperience in using flash photography, but then I allowed a friend to try it out on his, and he being one who has more... more info
