Hi,

I'm after a bit of clarification as to how Pentax Function 10 works on
the MZ-S, before I send mine off for repair.

PF 10 controls how the popup flash will behave when used in wireless
mode.  The manual says:
++
During wireless operation you can set the built in flash to function as
a flash or wireless controller.
Pentax Function No 10
Setting No
[1] Sets the built in flash to operate as a flash.
[2] Sets the built in flash to operate as a wireless flash controller.

Memo
If the built in flash is used as a wireless flash controller, the
preflash emitted by the built in flash unit does not affect the
exposure, only to transmit the exposure information to the wireless
flash.
++

The problem is that I am getting reflections from the the popup flash
when I have PF 10 set to 2, and I don't think this should be happening
(and I know for sure the reflections are from the built in flash
because I have one slide with a perfect reflection of 3 flashes
reflected in the glass).  For those who have played with wireless flash
please let me know what you think.
