Pentax AF-500FTZ Flash on K100D
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?

Re: Pentax AF-500FTZ Flash on K100D
Zos, you'd think so, but it doesn't seem to do that except in specific circumstances with specific flashes. I can't get it to work with simple radio triggers for instance, and I've tried it on both my K100Ds and K20D. Haven't tried on my K-3, but I wouldn't hold my breath. It does work with my AF540FGZ flashes, but only if the flash is in the hot shoe on the camera, not with the Pentax wireless flash protocol. It's quite vexing as I really wanted to do light trails stuff on a number of occasions. I even tried it with the X-sync socket on the K20D thinking that they'd treat that as a very simple circuit -- nope!

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?
