I took my ist D along to a gathering of my extended family Saturday. I was able to get some okay pix using my old TTL Sunpak flash, but...
I =REALLY= miss having the flash shoe over the grip, as it is on the Z-series cameras, instead of over the prism. My favorite way of shooting indoors with the (P)Z-1p is to bounce the external flash off the ceiling, and use the internal flash for direct lighting. Can't do that no more. I plan to buy a Sigma DG-something Super, but even then I'll have two things to hold instead of one to get the same lighting, unless I start using a flash bracket again (yuck!). One more thing I miss: the infrared focus beam. (piss, moan...) Rick http://www.photo.net/photos/RickW __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
