Hi Dave all I can say is that I had a similar phenomen with the Metz 32 MZ-3 and Pentax AF400-FTZ underexposing heavily in *auto* mode directly but working quite good bounced (60 degrees) to the ceiling on the K10D. I do not understand the logic because the flash sensor position where the same. greetings Markus

I have a birthday shoot Sunday, a one year old. Boy i get around eh.:-) Its my daughters dressage coaches son, i mentioned in the B&W refresher psot. I tried various settings with the 500DG super and K10D and results are all over the place. Shooting directly(90 degrees) gives me 2-3 tops under. Flash on an angle of about 20 degrees and bounceing off ceiling, but with no reflector card gives better, but still inconsistant exposure. Again, and i hate to say this, as i really would like to get the K10D out as a working camera, but my tests with the D2H and SB80DX with +0.3 flash exposure and the 'better bounce card", all look good. Hisoto is just a tad off the right.
