Just aim it at your object of focus and it gives the camera autofocus 
sensor something bright on which to focus.
Many flash units, and some digital cameras, have built in lasers to help 
in low light. My external flash for my 35mm Canon has that. Very 
effective, but somewhat slow.
My solution is just to use wide angle (always in focus, at least on the 
fuji.) and aim blindly at my subject. After the picture, you can look at 
the result immediately to see if it needs reshooting. The advantage of 
digital.
