- the wirless trigger will fire the flash at full output with no control or feedback to the camera?

You can still set the 200 to -0.5 or -1 for some control.


- The cable will allow the camera to control the output and will also still work in fully auto and -0.5 and -1 ev modes. Will the cable also provide full p-ttl feedback?

Yes it will and it is full p-ttl !

the cable will give full control off camera, but the trigger won't ! it will only be fired by the camera, i.e. no control of duration or power level. The 200 is of course NOT capable of wireless operation with the camera directly. Hope this helps

use DOS based software to simply delete/reformat the partition !! (Paragon is good)

It's as simple as that No worries about owner/permissions

send me your address and I'll send you a CD already prepared

new lens (da 18-138 wr) recording as unknown on my K20 !!

LR shows NO lens info. and PhotoMe gives :

Unknown DA or DA* lens (Id: 8 215)


Is this normal with newer lenses on older bodies ? does it record ok on K5 (K7) ??

I have several flash units that do that, to conserve battery !
I suspect it does it on the camera too !? right ??

You need a flash unit that stays on, possibly with a different position on the on switch. My 360af stays on in wireless mode, as does my Nikon SB.

Hope this helps

How is it quick ???

Presumably as you don't have to download and install a program before you are able to check your shutter count.

You also don't have another hardly ever used program cluttering up your PC. I have only checked my shutter count once, when selling a camera.
I use the program often, and not just for shutter counts !
so it's well worth the download
