Minolta Auto 200x External Flash

Pulled this out of my camera bag for a dim wedding reception and the auto mode worked like a charm with my old X-570. It's compact enough to leave on the body without feeling bulky, and the recycle time didn't make me miss a single shot. A solid little workhorse for film shooters who want a bit more

The auto exposure mode on this flash reads the scene surprisingly well, even bouncing off a low ceiling indoors. It's compact enough to leave mounted in the bag without weighing down my manual-focus setup.

Slapped this on my old manual-focus SLR and it fired perfectly on the first roll. The auto mode nails exposure without any fiddling, which is exactly what I wanted for indoor shots. Took a few test frames to get the bounce angle right, but the results speak for themselves.
