I have commented before on how well the MZ-S and AF360 work... the 
camera's multi-zone metering of the preflash produce consistently good 
exposures.  However, one problem.  There are some people who are prone 
to blinking at the flash and while a single flash will typically take 
the exposure before the blink, the preflash triggers the blink so the 
eyes are closed when the actual exposure is made.  

I have now tried off camera (wireless) flash, but the small camera flash 
still fires prior to the exposure which may trigger the blink.  I will 
know when I have my last roll processed.  Typically with an SLR one does 
not see the flash fire because the mirror is up at the moment of 
exposure.  However, with preflash, one does see the flash, or actually 
the preflash, through the viewfinder although the actual exposure and 
flash follow so closely that there is no perceptible delay and it 
appears to be one contiguous flash.  

Any one else experiencing this problem?


Cheers,  Mike.
