I use a Sunpack MZ440AF and it works fine with the newer

auto flash only.
I also have a Vivitar 283. Nice unit - non-dedicated, manual and non-TTL

eBay, people there overpay when it comes to these kind of lenses.
Darn. And I thought it was a bargain at $155.
Problem is I still want the thing... Someone willing to "enable"

company. Even before that Leica had several lenses that where
made by jobbers. I have my doubts about the
