Runaway!!! Don't look back!!! More seriously, I have the 2800 too and consider it a Vivitar 283 made for Leicas. But, and that's a big but, I can't get used to its automatic shutdown feature. I don't know how many shots I've missed because the flash shut off. If I could get someone to disable that feature I would use the flash more. I just picked up the Olympus S20 and love its compactness and punch. It's only flaw is its lack of pc pigtail for use with M3 or 4 without adapter. That being said I just completed an all Leica shoot with no flash. Had an M3 set up with a 90 f/2 and an M6 switching off between a 35 and a 21. Available (hospital) lighting. Wide open and hand held. Loved it. And the client did too. A couple more times and the Nikons go on the block! Bill Franson
