Todd,
Thanks for this idea, but actually, I was using a Tokina 150-500mm "A"
lens, at the 500mm end! Perhaps the contacts on the lens or body were
fouled, and the camera thought it was a short focal length F or FA lens.
BTW, what does "auto flash mode" mean?
I've been using this lens for some years without seeing anything like
this. I replaced the batteries with a new set, but with no effect.

What lens were you using? The MZ cameras, in auto flash mode with a F or
FA lens attached, choose a shutter speed of 1/focal length as long as the
focal length is <=100mm, in order to let more ambient light into the
picture. I would guess you were using a 50mm lens or a zoom at about 50mm?
Todd
