I just autoflashed. But I keep in mind that this way it only gives  
workable results if the part that you want your light on is between  
1,5 and 2,5 meters away. So between 5 and 8,5 feet.
Also: this was a selection of about 80 shots in jpeg. I just fired  
away and selected afterwards. RAW just takes to long with this little  
gem.
I quite like the camera generated B&W at ISO 400 though.

Thanks for looking,
Philippe
