Lance, great shots and sharp,

I haven't had any time this week and the weather as you know hasn't been helpful,

Initial thoughts are very good. Have you tried any video yet : picture quality looks very good.

BTW what part of the Sth Coast were these pics taken : My parents also live down the sth coast "Wonoona" and they get a few Kookaburras in there yard, as well as a host of Cockatoos and parrots.

So how did you get it out Chris. :

I guess this answers the question then.

Chris is there any word on K-7 batteries : Is there a short supply of them :

So where in that link does it say the Nikon battery will fit the K-7 or not. :

Thanks Pete, Yes TTL A zoom is what I am refering

I will try the ring flash tomorrow and see what I get. cheers

The Nikon battery looks a different shape, more like the K20 battery.

I think you are getting a little ahead of yourself anyway, most people would have only had thier camera a few days and I doubt very much if any of them have tried a Nikon battery in it

Yes it is set to Auto TTL.

With the Camera in AV mode and with a D-FA 100mm macro attached, even with the aperture wide open, you would expect the shutter speed to increase accordingly but its only getting up too 10th or 20th sec. The flash symbol on the LCD screen and inside the view fider is flashing suggesting its not seeing the flash and resulting in a greatly over exposed shot.

I think the snipers plan to use them as gun sights

No takers??

Price drop to AU$140 (£6

Will fleabay it on Sunday night if no takers. cheers

Yes it flashes but is uncontrolled. Full discharge

I have my DF-A 100mm macro on it.

Firmware version 2.02

I tried the AF360FGZ and its working ok

With camera in AV,P,TV or M and pressing the FN button and selecting the flash modes, it will only allow me to select manual discharge, Auto is greyed out :
But if I use one of the preset modes or Auto Pic it allows for "auto flash" but still not recognising the flash.

I had already checked the Manual and it clearly states it is compatible.

Hmmm not sure whats going on

Thanks Pete, I can't seem to get the flash to communicate with the body, am I missing something :

Help Matt
