Steal of a bargain
 

I'm on the mailing list for Calumet and have just been sent their latest newsletter. They are doing the Metz 58AF-1 for a steal of a price:

Offer lasts until 30th May or until no stock left. This really is a super flash gun, I have one in Pentax fit and cannot rate it highly enough.

Oh grief, temptation!

Note that the price on offer from Calumet is the same as you'd normally pay for the lower powered 48AF-1. One of the arguments normally used to justify why you shouldn't use 3rd party flashguns is that it may not be compatible with future cameras, the 48/58AF-1 models get around this by having a USB port on them to allow users to upgrade the firmware as models come on the market or to add improvements. Metz build quality is top-end.

Don rates Metz stuff very highly, that's why I bought one, no regrets, even if I did pay full price!
