Does 2nd curtain sync exist on K3II or does it depend on what flash you have?. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Very good, out of curiosity which lenses were used for which photos ?

What an excellent set of photos they are so sharp. What equipment did you use and was it totally natural lighting or was there any flash involved

Thanks for all the advice and comments. Having experimented a little more I am finding it's a bit of trial and error between the flash power and the aperture

Hi
I have a K3II and a Metz 44 AF1 flashgun. I have two old lenses from my old ME Super - A Pentax 135mm and a 50mm F1.7. When shooting without flash I use the Green button method ie set the aperture on manual mode and press the green button to stop down. Overall I get decent results although focussing is sometimes a little off. However when using flash should I set the camera to manual mode or to X and do I still use the green button?. Also should I use the flash on TTL or manual. I have tried various combinations but don't get consistent results. Is it just a matter of trial and error or has anybody got a proven method
I am interested to hear anybody's experience of this
Thanks
