I also use them in the AF-360 flash, again without troubles. I don't know about older flashes.
The only problem with these batteries is that their "idle life" is shorter than alkalines -- even if unused, NiMH batteries will go flat within a few months; alkalines are good for a couple of years. Not really important, unless you go for long periods without using your camera.
A good rule with NiCd/NiMH batteries: put them in the charger the night before you intend to use them.

I haven't really gotten on very well with the BG-10 grip. I find the vertical shutter release button is in the wrong place for my fingers; it needs to be at the end of the grip, unless I'm holding it wrong. It's more comfortable using the body release even with the grip attached.
The IR is useful, but that should have been built into the body in the first place.
As I'm often carrying the MZ-S with the *istD kit the extra bulk and weight of the grip tends to stay at home.
Incidentally, does anyone know if NiMh batteries are OK in the grip? I t only mentions alkaline and lithium in the manual.

Go for it! The MZ-S is a great camera, and even better with the BG-10 grip.
Not so sure about the 360 flash, since the head doesn't swivel. I've been
using a Metz 40MZ-3 flash with my MZ-S, with good success.
