The AF400T works great on the D. i think the reason Dario and others
have experienced so many failures and erratic behavior patterns with
certain flashes on the D is that the connectors on the D hotshoe
sometimes have trouble making contact. That would explain the erratic
results with some flash units. Mounting is critical. The AF 400T
doesn't mount on the shoe of course. It uses a cable that attaches to
the shoe. I think the weight of some flashes on the shoe causes them to
rock back and forth a bit, interrupting contact. Even the Sigma has to
be mounted carefully, and the wheel has to be tightened aggressively.

And that's P-TTL, right? Or are you saying that it has a TTL mode and
it works well on the -D?
