My Nikon SB15 lit the flash ready signal on Nikon FM/FE bodies way back in the 1970s.
Lighting the flash ready signal is not the same as responding to the body's flash control protocol for Flash EV Compensation, setting the exposure time and lens opening automatically, allowing HSS, etc, that are what a "dedicated" flash unit would imply. What Bill was looking for was a flash that would do those dedicated features while using its in-built Auto Flash sensor system, bypassing the P-TTL flash metering. Perhaps the Metz units will do that with the right SCA module, but I haven't seen any proof of that yet.
