I've used mine on the LX and Z1-p when I didn't want to carry a large flash. It's a bit limited, having a fixed head, but plenty of urge for small locations. Stofen softens things nicely. AFAIU, it should not work in TTL with the DL. Is it switched to TTL on the back? (Rereading "according to power setting" you must be using it in "auto" mode) The functions you mention are not TTL functions, really. They are the ones described as "program auto", making it easier to use flash. Only the exposure metering defines TTL. Maybe you have been lucky, as I was with my first few flash exposures. ----------------------------------------- Email sent from www.ntlworld.com Virus-checked using McAfee(R) Software Visit www.ntlworld.com/security for more information -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
