I would look for a used Nikon SB-15 - it maintains the compact nature of
the FG while providing TTL exposure and versatile movement (it can be turned
to shift the flash above the lens for vertical photos, or it can be aimed
down for close-up work) at low cost ($65-75). Try to get the WA panel
for it, if you can. I recommend taping a cp05Y filter over the flash to
warm the color a bit...
Hope This Helps
