[NikonCoolPix] External Flashes for Coolpix

Has anyone tried the Nikon SB-22, 23, 28, or 30 external flash units
with the Coolpix 4500?

I have three goals for the flash..

1. Extend internal battery life by using an external TTL flash.
2. Be able to use the WC-E63 wideangle lens indoors. Currently the wide
angle lens blocks the flash. I am not sure if it will block the TTL
sensor which is located below the flash, but I think it will be ok :)
3. Get more natural looking pictures by using a bounce flash, instead of
a straight on flash.

If anyone has any experience with the scenarios I have just described,
please feel free to pass along your experiences and wisdom. Also, I
have been looking at the Rollbar and KISS bracket from this website
http://www.therollbar.com/ ... They look well designed an well thought
out. Any comments on these would be welcomed as well.

Thanks!
