I just purchased Sunpak PZ42X for Canon and it doesn't seem to work
with Canon SX10 IS.
The flash does not fire when used in TTL mode. Manual mode does work,
but then I would need to adjust flash power manually based on distance
to an object.
Could somebody confirm that dedicated Sunpak does not work in TTL mode
with SX10 IS?
What other dedicated flash would work well with SX10 IS? I need swivel
and bounce features. I have an option to go with Canon 430EX flash,
but I would like to save on a "dedicated" from other manufacturer.
Thank you.
