Larry, - the manual mode of the flash is available if you go into the M[anual] mode of the camera (on K-7, at least, but I suspect it's the same on K10/K20). It might be the same way for some other modes (A or T). I've ordered Metz 58 today. It seems to have more flexibility in adjustments. Charles: yes, it is a well known complaint about 540 FGZ that it forgets the settings. And I believe it happens even when it goes into the "sleep" mode.
