And you're right - it doesn't work in TTL. I end up with a fixed aperture of f/5.6, and no flash cutoff at all.
I don't use flash much (yet), so this little unit has been ideal. And at AU$20 it was a steal. I note though that AF360 units are starting to appear at reasonable prices, so I might enable myself with something better in the new year.
