This is a very long shot - maybe the flash head is allowing light to go directly into the lens somehow, overloading the TTL capability. For one of the popular, clip-on diffusers, the manufacturer recommends that the flash head is tilted up for a reason similar to this. The fact that you are having the problem with a shorter lens but not a longer one seems to lend weight to the hypothesis. Not sure how you would solve the problem, though. mike
