AF-500FTZ Flash in very good condition, has pieces of velcro stuck on for using a bounce, soft box etc. no box but does come with the original leather case. £75.00 +P&P.

P+P, £6.00 within the UK using Next Day Special Delivery, International postage will be at cost depending where it's going.
Cheers
Brian.

Hefty, my post was acknowledging the quality of Brian's gear, not the capabilities of the AF500FTZ.

I don't think Pentax ever made another flash, before or since the AF500FTZ, that provided multiple flash strobing.

Could possibly be something to do with the Prime Minister but more likely Joe you have a private message in your in-box. Look at my messages top right of screen

You're welcome Brian. BTW your old AF140C ringflash now lives in Canada with another forum member. I've replaced it with an AF160FC, the P-TTL version. It suits the newer Pentax DSLR's (non-TTL compatible) better than the TTL flashes.

Thank you Restyles, there was indeed a private message in my inbox( not Gordon in my inbox). This is my first PM so please forgive my green behind the gills knowledge.
