My brother's into amateur photography, and his birthday's coming up. He's got an Olympus E-Volt E500, and I'd like to get him a quality, compatible flash for his birthday.

What kind of flash should I get him, that he can grow into but won't break my bank account? Any good sources for these types of things?

I've tried to do some searches, but I'm not having any luck, really. I'm more finding stuff about flash settings, than units.

ETA: I'm browsing B&H to get some ideas, but I'm not terribly knowledgeable in this field, so much of it may as well be in Sanskrit.

Less than $200. If possible, less than $100.

I would recommend getting him an Olympus flash for an Olympus camera but that's just me.

Check out the FL-36, Its relatively inexpensive and will be significantly better than any built in unit.
