Well that would have saved me a fair bit of time

Then again, it seems with this discontinued flash, their stock system was all over the place. I kept getting told on the phone that certain branches had several in stock, only to find out that they were sold out when I actually called them.

Thank you for the tip, smc!

I have just bought a Samsung SEF54 off e-bay a couple of days ago (£165, yay!) but I just couldn't resist this price. A bit silly to be going from no speedlights to two in a matter of days, but I cannot see there being a better price around for a while, when even used AF-360s sell for like £130 on ebay.

I called like 8 different JL stores before striking gold in Aberdeen (I think they had 2 in stock). From what I remember: Oxford Street, Milton Keynes, Sheffield, Solihull, Bluewater, Edinburgh, Wycombe, Cheadle were all out. If anyone wants to hunt around for one, quoting the stock code (82970704) makes things easier.

Edit: I suppose I should also say hi, this being my first post and all. I've had a K100d for the past 4 years, I hope to upgrade soon. I mostly do travel/street photography, but the flash purchases are an effort to try my hand at some controlled studio-style lighting.
