Hello Hyram,

Like you I have the AF280T, have you used it on your K20D with the Pentax hotshoe grip?

If you have what Synch cord are you using to connect the K20D hotshoe to the hotshoe grip?

What are you using the Metz on, and do you use it on a hotshoe grip?

I'm trying to sort out compatibility issues with the K20D
Hi Roscoe,

I only used the AF280T for a short while on my K10D body (but attached directly to the body) before I bought the Metz.

The Metz is used on both my K10D and K20D bodies but so far, always directly on the body.

Hopefully Mattmatic will see this thread and join in.

Matt knows everything there is to know about flash on Pentax cameras.

p.s. Should have read Mannesty's reply before responding !

Hi Roscoe - another Essex boy!

Hello Dan,

Firstly it's wonderful to be called a boy at 61, more of an OLD Boy lol.

As to Essex, I can't really claim to be an Essex Boy, Old or not, as I was born in E17, and am an Eastender.

But never the less thanks for the welcome, take it easy,

Roscoe

Spent a bit of time in Walthamstow myself when I was at college - Hale End Road and Blackhorse Lane for a while.

Anyway, if you've adopted Essex, you'll do!

Hi Dan,

Small world isn't it?
