Joe. Thats the info i remember receiving,but lost during the email problem.Just could not remember what it was. One other thought.If i meter in Av mode for f 8(one of the auto settings on the 280T) but set the auto dial on f 4(the other setting)will that give me less of a burst of flash,as it will be thinking it needs light for a more wide open lens,or is this not connected either if on manual. I'v looked at the manual but all my flash books seem vauge on fill,or i just am not picking it up.
