Good Beginner flash for K-M

Posted 27/11/2009 - 10:09 Link
Hi
another newbee question, Looking for a flash to add on to my new k-m looking for something cheapish and easy to use.

Not sure of the best places to find them and what kinds of flash I can use.

found one of these cheap on ebay Flash Speedlight YN-462

I take it it's not up to much ?

thanks in advance for any advice.
cheers

Depends on what you find easy to use?

Some think manual mode is easy and therefore a lot of flashes are good for them but some find full auto mode (P-TTL) easy and those flashes are more expensive.

YN-462 is a manual flash and very basic.

Most these days went for a Metz 48, a modern flash with all the tricks but still reasonably priced.
