These Vivitar flashes use a foot-module to adapt to different camera makes
for TTL-dedicated flash functions. With the "O/OM" module, the Vivitar 3500
works like a T-20 or T-32 flash. No SuperFP, but otherwise a nice unit, the
built-in zoom head is a nice feature. You can get the foot-modules for
Pentax, Nikon, Canon, Minolta, and Olympus (and maybe others...?)
