I've been following this thread & I have a question for you.
The clamp and bracket for the AF400T use the 4Pin cable, Won't this cause problems / loss of functionality with the AF500FTZ ? the AF500FTZ uses the 5P cord/s.
Regards
Patrick

You can do what it did for a macro brackett. I ordered the grip intended for the AF280T flash - its discontinued but Pentax managed to provide it anyway. I use the clamp system and brackett from the AF400T flash (can also be ordered separately). This can be monuted on the camera or on a lens with tripod socket. It can be rotated in different directions.

Subject: mounting an AF500FTZ off-camera
> I'm exploring some off-camera options for macro work, and I'm trying to decide specifically how to mount the AF500FTZ once I decide where I want to put it. It doesn't need a Pentax accessory shoe mount, because the F5P cord attaches directly to the flash. But all the accessory shoe mounts I've seen (including the Stroboframe mini ball head with shoe mount that I'd like to use) look like they will touch the contacts on the bottom of the flash shoe.
