I used the 360FGZ with the *istD outside on a dark(ish) rainy evening taking my daughter's prom pictures. I also took some indoor shots. I had the *ist D on 400 and was using a sigma 24-70 zoom. I was very pleased with he shots, and I normally hate flash. I just set it on P-TTL and didn't think about it again.
The word on this list has been that the flash use is optimized for iso 400.

My AF400FTZ is OK in basic TTL mode, but useless if I try any flash compensation (and I've tried lots of different ways of doing it). I've considered buying the AF360FGZ but it isn't powerful enough for my uses (and I'd like head swivel as well as tilt). I'd love a fully-ist-D-compatible, higher-powered version of the 360FGZ. Please Pentax build it for me and I'll buy it! -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
