Nevermind.... From what I've read online (duh, should have looked harder first), a flash in "control" mode should "not contribute significantly to the exposure" so it's doing what I thought it should be doing - primarily just telling the remote flash what to do. Although why that final full flash from the "controller" needs to go off at all, I have no idea. Seems like it could do the pre-flashing and then just shut up! -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
