The old flash is a Centon FG 30 D which is not TTL, ( came free with some other kit - P30N slr which was bundled with a Slide converter I wanted) I think the flash settings are 'directing' / telling the camera what to do and not the other way around?
With any older non-P-TTL flash there is no comunication between the camera and flash apart from triggering it to fire.The old flash is a Centon FG 30 D which is not TTL, ( came free with some other kit - P30N slr which was bundled with a Slide converter I wanted) I think the flash settings are 'directing' / telling the camera what to do and not the other way around?
The camera will be basing its exposure on ambient light only. Your flash in AUTO mode will be taking a reading from it's own light sensor and will be quenching the flash when it calculates enough output has lit the subject.

Looking back I think when I tried adjusting the aperture on the KP in 'P'rogram mode it had no response?
With a live flash on the camera you are limited to no faster than flash sync-speed (1/180sec on the KP I think). If you try to change aperture that would require a shutter speed faster than that it wont let you.Looking back I think when I tried adjusting the aperture on the KP in 'P'rogram mode it had no response?

It would be interesting to see how it differs from a setting of 2.8.
Under reporting the SR setting (not sure if 2.8mm is possible) will have no adverse effect on the image. The reason is that the sensor shift will be minuscule. It would be interesting to see how it differs from a setting of 2.8.
This is why when folk ask what they should set a zoom lens to, if they are using all of its range and do not wish to change the setting for each picture, the answer is to set it to the lowest zoom FL
Nice set...the last one gets my vote

Hi David, yes the halos are a result of brightening up the water tanks as they were in shadow for the shot. I aim to deal with them before I send the image to the printers

Interesting. There is a facebook group called "Abandoned Aesthetics" which these images would suit well.

The water images with the leaves in crisp focus are lovely.
