Hi, Does anyone on the list need Pentax 'Extra Flashes'? I have two. They are tiny things that use one AA battery -- about the same power as the 'Popup' flash in Pentax cameras. They are slaves and have no sync-cable socket, only a trigger sensor. I wanted to use them for Robins etc. at bird feeders, but without even trying immediately realised, the moment I unpacked them, that they'd be far too small. If I put them near enough to the feeders they'd be used as bird perches (and/or toilets) and further away they'd be useless. They are new in the box and I tested one -- it works. I think they might be useful with the *ist D for macros and so on.
I have a big Metz CT45 that I'll use for the birds with a long cable -- and an extra reflector. Any offers? I paid £18 each for them. Postage costs would be negligible as they are very small.
