Hi,
Does anyone know if the Godox system will trigger a Pentax brand flash? af-540fgz & af-540fgzii and could I use the AD200 alongside these flashes?
Thanks.

Try WiFi Commander for Pentax. Works a treat, simply by connecting to the camera via its WiFi

M42 09-12-2018 by Steve Everitt, on Flickr

24 images stacked using K1ii and astrotracer & DA*300 @ f5.6 ISO1600. The high ISO was used because I intended to stack and stacking reduces the noise.

Pretty good. But there is no need to use the lens wide open and have huge ISO with the Astrotracer. Stop your lens down to f4 or even 5.6 and there's no need to go above ISO 800. Also at 200mm you should get 60 seconds at least with no star trails.

I tried to upload the 5 images again after the above post at 15:10. I've left it going and it's still publishing; it's nearly 17:00

I had a very similar issue when panning at what was my local kart track. The first image would be fine (I was on fast multi shoot to ensure I got at least one sharp in the sequence) but as the pan progressed so each shot would get brighter. I sent the lens to the new defunct company for repair, they said they couldn't fix it and sent it to France. A few weeks later I received the camera back and I'm convinced they took the base off my camera and put it on a brand new body so I had the same serial number. It worked flawlessly after that.

Painfully slow. First I tried to look at the 21 comments on one of my images, 15 minutes later I gave up. Then later I tried uploading just 5 images and three of them failed, clicked retry and 1 failed, clicked retry and all were ready so then I click Upload and it did the usual jump to about 75% but then sat there for over half an hour before I again gave up. Not convinced the switch to SmugMug is looking particularly a good one AND they've doubled the price!
There's an old saying ... if it ain't broke don't fix it. Flickr used to be superb.

Hi guys, help out a numpty ...
If I put my flash on my K3 and use LV it fires as I'd expect, but on the 1 it flatly refuses to fire in LV .... #confused
What am I doing wrong
