Calumet NL don't stock Pentax or anything for Pentax. Sounds like Calumet UK could be going the same way:

That was quick - it's arrived already and seems to be the correct item etc!
Haven't had a chance to try it yet, though

Arrived yesterday
had a bit of a play, fun thing

I nearly blinded myself working out how to shoot it wirelessly though
it was one of those

"Why isnt this working?!?"
*looks into flash*
*shoots again*
*flash fires into eyes*

I've done that and more than once I'm ashamed to say!

Before you sell off the 360, would you mind trying out something? Will the Metz act as 'master' and control the pentax and/oir vice versa in wireless mode. Its something I've asked before (ie multiple flashguns using different makes) and not had an answer to!
Cheers

I had to leave mine in the UK as I only had hand luggage on the plane.
It was either the flash or the Pentax F* 300mm f4.5 and as I had a AF-360 here anyway there was no contest really.
