True. You can often find the AF280T for a very reasonable price. TTL metering with this flash and the 645 is very good indeed. I did an indoor shoot of a band a few months ago and used this combination, setting the camera to manual exposure and the flash to TTL auto. I set the shutter speed with what I thought was the slowest I could hand hold with the 45mm lens (1/30 sec) and the aperture one stop down from wide open (f/4.0). Then I relied on the TTL flash to either provide a little fill or make up the underexposure difference. Worked out nicely. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
