After seeing SY's thread http://photographicfreedom.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=828.0 (http://photographicfreedom.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=828.0) about what we want to see on this forum, I clicked on it thinking it was a wish list. It wasn't, so post your wish list items here and tell a little about it. Include design software, camera accessories, cameras, anything stock related. Here's mine:
I recently purchased a K10D and I have an old Vivitar 283 flash that puts out over 500 volts upon fire and a steady 150-250 volts while charging (Canon's hotshoes take a maximum 5-6 volts).
I really want a few Pentax AF540FGZ's, http://www.pentaxslr.com/flashes/flash_540 (http://www.pentaxslr.com/flashes/flash_540). They are high-speed wireless (on-camera too) flashes that can be triggered remotely using the built-in on-camera flash. The nice thing about this is you don't need more than one, like many other remotely-triggered flashes, but you can have as many as you want set up remotely. Also, I read somewhere, but can't find where, Pentax has four different channels in case someone else is using a Pentax camera near you, they won't set off your flashes when they take a picture. This would be perfect at a wedding because you wouldn't have to ask the in-laws to stop using their flashes because only the built-in Pentax flash fires all your remote flashes.
Anyway, I don't work for Pentax, even if it sounds like I do, but I'm saving up to buy a couple of these flashes.
