Hi Archie The Sunpak pro unit - I would expect to pay up to £50: I regard the one I describe as best for you, well worth The £28. The others I would not be prepared to pay above £20. If you go for the Auto 301 which I think is the best for you - it has everything you will need, it is designed for use with your camera and if it was me I would grab it with both hands and not worry about a bidding war on ebay. If you have not used ebay much, starting bids mean very little, and a £9.99p start price means the seller wants at least that amount for the item.

Archie, its complete with the filters. It has a swivel and bounce head so you can direct or reflect your light, its made for use with a manual focus SLR - which is what your camera is. It has an automatic or manual mode so you can select the amount of light you want on a subject ... Sunpak have a reasonable reputation as third party flash makers.... I could go on .......
