Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good flash for Pentax "Strobists"
If you've got a Pentax dSLR, this is the flash you're looking for. I really agonized whether to go with a cheaper flash to use off camera with an optical slave triggered by the on camera flash, or go ahead and get the 360, which would provide me with more options, especially when used on camera. I'm very glad I went with the Pentax. So glad I ended up buying a second one. It's a good all around flash, easy to use, and obviously great to use in conjunction with your Pentax dSLR. When you have two, ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Beginner Flash
The Pentax AF 360 FGZ is an excellent beginner flash for anyone interested in shooting indoors or using light in more creative ways, and I highly recommend it. While some will find that they need the added power and features of the AF 360's bigger and more expensive brother (the AF 540) this flash is excellent, and at a price of around $200, an extremely good flash for the money.

I use my AF 360 with a Pentax K10D, and have noticed a dramatic improvement in my indoor photography when ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Versatile, But Not Powerful
This flash is far better than the on-camera flash, in that it does extend the range a little, and adds an enormous amount of versatility and control over lighting the subjects. My problem is it's range - although it is a basic flash, I tried shooting subjects no more than 16ft away and it had problems lighting them up properly.

At first I thought it was my camera or my partial inexperience in using flash photography, but then I allowed a friend to try it out on his, and he being one ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Pentaxcentric Flash
The AF 360 FGZ flash is a hard-working, no-nonsense flash for Pentax DSLR P-TTL enabled cameras. It will work as a Master or Controller on camera to control other P-TTL flashes off camera (for K110D, K100D, K200D users). I use it with others in P-TTL mode wirelessly and cabled with a Pentax Pentax F5P 9.5-Foot Extension Cord for Pentax Flash Units cable and Pentax F adaptor. I also use it extensively in manual mode, both on and off camera (as an optical slave).

The flash is well designed. ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another reason for me to like PENTAX
I have had about 5 Pentax cameras in my life and this is the first time I purchased a flash made by Pentax. Seems like money well spent as this flash does do all it is billed to do. My problem is that my istD doesn't have all the features to match up with this flash as the new cameras do. Like my istD it isn't Pentax's Top of the Line but it will perform for most of my photographic needs. I hope to buy another Pentax flash to take advantage of the wireless functions for fill light applications and it will ... Read More
