I'm strongly considering purchasing a used Pentax AF-500FTZ, mainly for off-camera "strobist" style shooting. As I understand it, the unit has a built-in optical slave which should work fine for manual-mode, strobist style shooting.

I'd also like to us this flash in the hot shoe of my K100D, which only supports P-TTL mode. I know that I'll have to use the AF-500FTZ in manual mode to control the exposure. I'm fine with that.

Do any of these other AF-500FTZ features work with K100D:

Focus assist light?

Strobe (multiple burst) mode?

Second-curtain sync?

Ready light in viewfinder?


I appreciate any information you can share about this particular combination of gear.


Thanks,
Glen
