Before I got my 540FGZ, I used a 280T for a couple years on my *istD. It performs very well in auto (non-TTL) mode. It has two auto modes, for close or far subjects, and switching between those modes is all you have to do to use the flash on a digital SLR. The flash's built-in thyristor will do the rest. Now if only there was a better way to keep the 280's battery door closed than a zip tie... ;) John -- http://www.neovenator.com http://www.cafepress.com/neovenatorphoto -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
