That link you send me I have seen that camere and called the company but is around 60,000 dollars and just to rent it is 6,000
I believe you may be asking too much from the equipment you have.
You may get some sort of usable images with the gear you are using, but as for accuracy and consistency I think you are pushing it.

Great summary Mhuni
Hope you don't mind I've just bolded up the names and given some spacing to make it easier to read.
But you are right, when I first saw the post I thought i would save it for a rainy day, but now its much easier to read. cheers to you.

Yes the lens has an auto focus.
How I turn off the one from the camera?

This kind of set up and calibration is best left to the pros I would think.
Perhaps the K200 is not up to it and doesn't have the accuracy and consistency required for this sort of application.
I have never seen a photo finish camera setup before but I would expect its a very Hi tech and expensive piece of kit.

Well I did as Clarky told me and got a AF-200 on Ebay for a reasonable price and am waiting for my bracket to arrive.
I still havent sorted how I am going to connect the flash and K10D yet though.
The T allows for 1/8th, 1/4, 1/2, and full discharge. The S as far as I can see doesn't give you these options.
But it may be ok, let me know how you get on with it.
You can pick up a cable from E-bay link
Clarky:
*ist-D and *ist-DS work 100% with TTL (older) flash guns.
My hunking great Metz 50MZ5 works perfectly on both... on the K20D/K10D I have to resort to "A" mode (but it works better than the AF360/540 in "A" mode as the ISO and Av are linked automatically).

I notice you have it setup on your DS, Does it work as it should with full TTL functions.
BTW thanks for the tubes
