 I have the 444D which, according to my Sunpak glossy, is exactly the same 
flash but uses the DX interchangeable-shoe system and comes with a zoom 
head.  I got a mains power adaptor with mine, which helps save batteries if 
I'm using it indoors.  The brochure explicitly states that the 433D accepts a 
510V power pack, BTW.

 I'd definitely recommend the 433D/444D flashes (B3600D/B3600DX 
respectively, outside the US).  I think the only missing feature is a PC 
socket, but PC/hotshoe adaptors are pretty cheap.  I'd also like a longer 
dedicated remote cord but I can use a long Pentax 5P extension cord 
instead, so that's not really a problem either.

 I certainly wouldn't mind a Pentax AF500FTZ but the damn things cost more 
than a 43mm Limited lens down here...

Cheers,
