Yeah, this would check that the flash beam is not narrower than it needs to be, but I am concerned that the opposite is hapenning. The flash beam if left unchanged from normal behaviour would be wider than necessary, and Pentax seem to have adjusted it to be even wider rather than narrower. So it will always cover more than the area of the paper. This is fine except it reduces the effective range of the flash.
Oh well, it would have to be possible to let paper fill whole frame and roughtly half the frame to see how badly Pentax did this time. Ideally, one would like to use flashmeter too.
But with DSLR it would cost virtually zilch to make a try!
