I never liked P-TTL to begin with. My Canon AE-1 Program has better
flash metering than that.
I'll see your TTL enabled Canon AE-1 and raise you to camera body
independent Metz SCA flashes.

In the AF-540FGZ manual it says there is an absolute minimum usable
distance in P-TTL (0.7 m). I always thought that was because the flash
was unable to quench its output fast enough to operate at shorter
distances. I thought so because quenching the blink was how the old
TTL system worked. Then,

Hi Jostein,
This may have something to do with my P-TTL problems and my macro set
up, given that I am running 2 flashes at a distance of 5 to 10 cm.
Though I'm metering the preflash with the aperture closed to f16 on a
38 mm or 20mm lens with up to 25cm of extension, so it's unlikely that

Eureka to me. I would (naively) have thought that P-TTL does take into
account the ambient light metering for the whole process, thus varying
the pre-flash power from shot to shot. But your

I guess the situation may have something to do with the viewing angle
of the flash.
The minimum distance probably coresponds to the narrowest angle of
view the flash can illuminate.
Closer than that, the flash still distibutes its light to a wider area
(without knowing the real distance).
This,
