macro ring flash for a K1000
Here's a tip, Clarky. Your AF080C is an excellent flashgun, but it will only fit lenses with a filter diameter of 49mm. However, thanks to the digital crop factor, it will happily work on your K10D with the FA 100mm 1:2.8 (58mm filter diameter) using a stop-down ring, and with NO vignetting. ...

Flash diffuser for AF-360 FGZ
So let me get this right, this is a filter type diffuser, just like a filter over the lens can soften a persons skin your filter over the flash gets rid of their dandruff? :D

Happiness is
Having a Vivitar 283 and going into a charity shop selling some handy accessories for it! They are a filter holder that clips on the front of the flash gun. A set of 4 filters that make it suitable for wide angle or telephoto A gizmo that allows you to set the power of the output from 100% down...

Colored gels with umbrellas (does it still work?)
As long as the filter is between the flash tube and the light modifier it will have the desired effect. It is hard to be more specific without knowing what eqipment you have. I wouldn't bother too much about flourescent, most tubes these days are daylightish.

Troubles with wireless trigger on 540FGZ
Thanks guys for your help. Mannesty: yep, it's different (updated) set - what kind of flash setting do you use? Mattmatic: That's a great idea - I tried to filter some of the pins, but it did not work. Maybe I'm doing it wrong - which exactly am I supposed to left out

Question regarding 360 flash unit
As an experiment, it might be worth taping an infrared filter over the pop-up flash to see what happens. I seem to remember that slave flashes are generally triggered by IR rather than visible light, so this set-up might trigger the 360 without upsetting your lighting. You can buy sheet filter mater...

setup with two masters & two slaves
Ok. If we assume one master/controller (my built-in) and one slave in P-TTL mode (my 540) as the nearest gun, and further away two more slaves (in adjacent rooms, out of reach from the controller, but in reach from the 540). Is it possible to trigger the last two slaves from any strong enough flash ...

PENTAX AF080C TTL Ring Flash for macro photography A+
James, A couple of things about the 080C. First, it attaches to the lens by the filter thread, and the thread in question is 49mm. The SMCP-FA 100mm macro has a 58mm filter thread, which looks like a problem. However, on a DSLR you can use a step-down ring from 58mm to 49mm and it won't vig...

Pentax AF240Z on K20D
Have a look here, which will explain the differences. http://www.bdimitrov.de/kmp/technology/hot-shoe/index.html On the K20D, Program mode won't work, but Auto mode will, provided you set the camera body to Manual. In my experience, Auto mode works just as well as TTL and P-TTL. I did befor...

AF 160fc- macro attachment
Hi, If you look on page 10 of the Flash Manual you will see that the "TUBE" is in fact a macro adaptor for the DFA Macro lens. The other rings can be used as per any other flash - to fit the unit to a particular size lens filter ring - in this case 49mm 52mm 58mm and 67mm. Hope this helps

AF 160fc- macro attachment
Sorry Neill, your lens identification is still incorrect. Pentax do not make a DA 100mm Macro lens. So which is it, FA or D-FA? Whichever, if it has a filter ring, and I'm sure it does, just use the correct sized aluminium ring adapter. I don't know what benefit the tube has, I don't use it.

AF 160fc- macro attachment
Pete, The tube is designed to take the weight from the flash head off the focus barrel on the D-FA macro lens, with the tube attached to the hood bayonet all the weight is then concentrated onto the main barrel of the lens. The D-FA 100mm macro does not have one of the highest build qualities. :...
