Subject: Need Metz Flash Recommendation

Dear Fellow LUGnuts,

After buying a Leica R8 and a few lenses, I have finally decided I need a
small flash for this great camera.  I use a Vivitar 283 and it has been a
great flash to put on top of the M6 for years.  However, there is a sale on
the SCA3000 adapters for the Metz flashes - actually the adapters are free.

I need a flash that will mount on the hotshoe of the R8.  I have read about
the 32MZ, 40MZ and 50MZ series from Metz.  Can anyone make a recommendation
for a flash that is powerful, zoom head and even perhaps with two flash
tubes for fill in and bounce at the same time?

Thanks.

Richard
