So.. have had this flash for a while now and I have to say it is well worth it. It comes in Canon, Nikon and other mounts. I have the Canon mount.
here are details of the flash: The 50 AF-1 is designed to fully support a Canon digital SLR camera's TTL system. Both E-TTL/E-TTL-II flash mode and E-TTL remote mode (slave and servo mode) are possible. It can be operated as a TTL slave unit that can be controlled by the camera's own built-in commander mode or as a manufacturer's flash with master capabilities. The flash also features an auto zoom head from 24-105mm that can be set to match the camera's sensor, a full bounce and swivel head (with a fully swiveling reflector system which also contains a flip-out reflector card and a diffuser), a built-in wide angle diffuser for 12mm coverage, and in addition, full manual control with 12 variable power output levels. Fully compatible with current and future digital Canon cameras, updatable via USB port High-speed flash synchronization allows flash to be used with any shutter speed (only with appropriate camera bodies) Wireless full TTL triggering via a camera or flash with commander/master mode Autozooming head can cover from 24 to 105mm, and 18mm when used with the included wide-angle diffuser. My only quirk.. is the menu.. it takes a while to find things.. but once you are used to it, it is quite fast to find things.. as an example, it took me a 1/2 hr to find how to put it in slave mode, the instruction booklet was not clear on how to get to it. __________________

Dirk.. probably not a tip. you may already know.. but I notice if I use TTL mode.. it is quite bright and overwhelming.. What I would suggest is buy a nice diffuser for it.. makes a ton on difference..
