There are quite a few on the market.... I cannot remember the name now but these cost less than $80, no autozoom, but manual zoom...

Just get any flash that has enough power for your use and get a slave adapter if they do not have slave mode.

But in using them as slave, you have to disable preflash on your A200, which means setting manual flash power.

Cheers!
