Start eating away! Since I discovered that the AF500FGZ only cost about half of what they originally wanted for the AF500FTZ , I just downloaded the AF500FGZ instructions. It clearly says that it does both TTL and P-TTL. This is a very versatile flash unit. It can be costumized (zoom) to fit many cameras, like 35mm, APS-digital, 645 and 67).
Why call it analog TTL?. TTL just means that the camera has a built-in sensor in order to controle the flash duration - Through The Lens. The *ist D does TTL Regards.

Do hope it is very tasty:) I have a 360FGZ flash and it's manual on page 14 only lists 2 types of TTL. The P-TTL and TTL. it lists LX , Super A 645N and 67II usable with TTL (amongst others). I would say that with the ME Super, MG, MV that the flash would be able to set the shutter speed. Funny thing is tho the SF7 is listed on page 14 as not being able to do TTL or to use the AF spot beam The SF7 must be sent back to pentax to be modifyed to use both. The 540FGZ manual only lists the SF7 as not being able to do TTL, nothing about a modifcation. who would bother?????
