Paul, I just noticed something, ignore my last post!
There's a pin rides on the top of the lock if you look at the front of the flash. That is part of the mechanism for the locking pin. With the flash in the locked position, use a small flat bladed screwdriver to lift this pin up and that should free the locking pin (as long as it's not bent). -Brendan --- Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes, it's true.
