Hi,

listening to all these discussions about flashed and the *ist-D I
wonder:
Will the internal flash support P-TTL?

I am a proud owner of the MZ-S for a few days now (replacing my
K2dmd...)
and found it a little bizarre that the internal flash does NOT support
this function.

Whatever the reason may be, I wouldn't expect the *ist-D to do it
different.
Should I?

Cheers,

Thomas
