looking at the pc screen, the Metz mecablitz 44 AF-2 Digital Flash for
Pentax Cameras looks interesting due to low price, advertised P-TTL
compatibility and "adjustable four level video light". the cash, as
always, is rather short so no option more expensive than the AF360FGZ II
is coming home - but IF this or another Metz is adequate, more $$ can be
diverted to lenses and cameras.
from my previous experience with Pentax flashes (280t and 330ftz) they
tend to eat batteries faster than ideal, but had endured a lot of abuse.
the 360 FGZ II is weather resistant, but that's not to be an issue - I
don't intend to take flash photography under the rain. flash photos are
not so frequent, for me, to the point a Vivitar 285hv has been enough
until now.
any toughts? any hands-on experience with the "video light" of those
two flashes? FWIW, I do carry a flashlight in the bag all times, and
have used it on occasion to light my subjects under very low light - the
feature is welcome indeed.
thanks in advance!
