A modest discovery today... While going through boxes (trying to find my Gossen Luna Pro F) I discovered a minty (still in snap case) Pentax AF240FT flash. This apparently came in an SF1 kit (that was probably purchased for the F50 f/1.7 lens)
Some googling reveals that people used these with Pentax DSLRs and one source: http://dpanswers.com/roztr/volt_finder.php shows that it has a trigger voltage of only 2.7v The manual with specs is here: http://www.go-gddq.com/down/2011-04/11042113228781.pdf It seems to be prized especially for its AF Spot Beam Will have to give it a try. It is a LOT smaller and less weight than my (admittedly more powerful/versatile) Metz 58 af-1. -- “The Earth is Art, The Photographer is only a Witness ” ― Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Earth from Above -- 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.
