The AF 160 tells the cameras with the additional contact at the right side of the hot shoe ( LX, ME, ME Super, Super Program, ... ) when the flash is ready. Then you can see during looking through the view finder if the flash is ready. That's the advantage. Some cameras are set then fix to X time ( e.g. LX ). That can be the disadvantage. regards Bernd - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
