Hi,
I use the Metz 50 AF-1 - its less than £200, has HSS (High Speed Sync)P-TTL and you get a couple of hundred shots out of it on a set of rechargeable (2450Mha)batteries.
Other points to note:
Works as a wireless slave off camera, great for popping light when doing strobist work.
Firmware can be updated via USB - software released directly by Metz.
Had mine ages and use it all the time, its never missed a beat.
Thanks for that it's on my list of possibles along with sigma EF 610 DH STHi,

Hi all
Just joined the forum yesterday, new to dslr, done 35mm years ago then digital compact.
Bought the K-r model after a lot of reading and reviews etc, now I have to learn about the workings.
Hobbies are: fly fishing, athletics, wildlife, so hope to get something better than snaps now.
Be prepared for lots of daft questions from me.

Hi Guys
Just purchased a Kr the other day, got to say fair chuffed with it. I have got the 18-55mm and 80-200mm lens.
Anyway, I will be doing my sons wedding next year and the majority of the photos will be inside (not ideal, but that's the way it is going to work out)
So, what flashgun would be good/ideal for an event like this, any suggestions/opinions most welcome.
Cheers
