This is Pentax's mid-range flash. The head doesn't swivel, which is a deal-breaker for some but may not matter to you. For example, if you're going to use it off-camera anyway, that's much less important. As with the big-sibling model AF540FGZ, many settings reset to their default on power off (even automatic power-save), which may be frustrating if you tend to use manual settings or exposure compensation. On the other hand, when you turn it on, you always know the state.

Including an Amazon link on this page is the easiest way to display the current prices, without having to keep track of it manually or write a more-complicated tracking script. And as a bonus, there's a picture of the flash. Obviously, the ad is also an affiliate link. As with all advertising on this site, I hope it's not too obnoxious.
