Hi Henk thanks for answering both of my questions . It saved my and the adapters life :-) I heard that the adapter needs a newer revision to work with all Pentaxes, but should work with the SFX-series. I will have to try. I have that general adapter manual from Metz, thanks a lot for your kind offer. greetings Markus
