I don't understand why you need a locking pin? On the flash units I've used (admittedly Canon) they just have a ring that tightens down onto the hotshoe to keep it in place. I don't remember what mechanism the Pentax flash I used to own had. hell i can't remember the name of the flash, the one I adapted to fire in high ambient light on the LX.... Oh brother, brain cells depleting rapidly now.... -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- 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.
