set them both to "A" mode. or manual.
Works for me.
on my ds2 I, put the 500 on camera and the 360 to A or M.... for faster set up..

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

I have an AF240 (not directly helpful I know but bear with me)
I thought since it has no PTTL and no A setting, it would be close to useless on a K10D, but after trying it the other day I am very pleasantly surprised. M mode is a lot easier to handle than I expected.

I'm in need of some more mobile flash power, another AF360 or AF540 would be the obviouse choice to add to my current 2x AF360's. I'm baulking a bit at the cost of a AF540 (the Samsung equivelant would be cheaper but trying to find one is a major problem) although I would like the extra power.
Question, has anybody any experience/tested controlling AF500FTZ's from a K10D mounted AF360. I realise that P-TTL wouldn't work but would the AF360 in manual mode sync with the AF500 set to manual mode dumb flash.
