I'm interested in buying a good flash, but I'm a bit confused as the ME
does not take advantage of many of the automatic features of many
cameras.  I read the August Issue of Consumer Reports, and they mention
some top-rated flashes like the Vivatar 5600 that produce a good
image with a flash, but I'm not sure if that would be overkill.  On the
other hand I've had some cheaper flashes over the years which have
failed repeatedly, and I'd like something good.  Any suggestions?
