pentax - Cons of using a manual flash on-camera as well?


Can we use a manual mode flash (specifically the Lumopro LP 160) On-Camera as well ? What are the cons of this ?


The only one I can think of is no TTL support.


Note : I will be using this with a Pentax k-x.


(Update : I confirmed from the manual that the flash does work on-camera fine. Would still like to know the cons of using a manual flash, as compared to one with an automatic mode)
