K7 Flash Issue?

Just back from a Bank Holiday shoot. Used my K7 with the 360 flashgun.

Images burnt out? Even on program? Same gun on *istD and K10 no bother.

Is this me missing something or have others had any flash issues?

Regards

I've just spent a couple of hours covering flash problems - if anything the K10D and later cameras under-expose flash rather than over-exposing it. I would guess the main subject is close to the camera perhaps?

Posting an image will help with the diagnosis.

I haven't had any problems using my pentax 360 and Metz 58 AF-1, in fact I believe they work better on the K7 than on the K20. In respect to exposure compensation.

But I do have issues using My Pentax AF500FGZ and Pentax AF080C ring flash on the K7, They tend to misfire on a regular basis, they will fire once but then not fire for the next 2 or 3 shots, Both these flashes are not P-TTL compatible, and are a little long in the tooth now, so I suspect that may have something to do with it. They both work fine on the K20 though.:

Will sort one out John, just a wee bit busy putting in Solar water heating system...

I often find the hot shoe on new cameras needs a little "running in" or it's prone not to connect properly. Make sure the flash really is properly seated before trying anything else.
