Comments about Vivitar Vivitar DF283 Digital TTL Shoe Mount Bounce / Zoom / Swivel Auto-Focus Flash for Olympus TTL, Guide Number 42m (137'):
The first flash lasted 10 days before it stopped firing. The replacement lasted just 2 days before the same thing happened. [...] I would definitely buy from Adorama again, just not this flash.

Have only used a few times during the holidays, so maybe I am missing something I will find in the instructions now that the most hectic time of year has passed. Exposures have been good with flash pointed directly at the subject, but underexposed with any kind of bounce flash, including with the reflector card (just a piece of cardboard) included with the flash. Have a class reunion session coming up that must have proper exposures, even if I must replace this flash model with a more expensive Olympus model.
