Any suggestions? I've used the SF24, but it does not have bounce capability. Therefore, I'm looking for something else for fill flash.
 
Fill flash is for outside where there would not be a bounce possibility. So, I assume you are requesting a flash to use to do Indoor bounce flash. I use a Minolta 320x on my Barnack Leica, of course, no hot shoe but I have triggers. I have 3 Minolta 320x(s) and they fit the bill: manual power control, and 3 auto settings. Plus, they are about $30 on Ebay and that is with shipping. One thing that this flash has is a light that, of course, lights when there is enough flash power for the bounce. In other words, you set up your auto flash setting and then do a button (on the flash) test to see if there is enough flash to support a photo. I would be happy to help you with focal plane shutter flash, any time, as it is the most difficult. If you are really looking for outdoor fill flash, I will also be happy to help you with that discipline, too.
 
I use a Metz 36 C-2. Well, I say use, but I don't think I've used it very many times since getting it.
 
I use a Nikon Sb-30 because of its small size.. it seems to fit the proportions of the camera perfectly, but it also doesn't bounce. I rarely use it though.
