Wendy, The Metz 3xx adapters originated in the times of analogue flash dedication and only support functions such as auto x-synch setting of the camera, basic TTL metering, flash ready and correct flash exposure signals in the camera viewfinder. The more advanced functions that came with digital flash dedication and which involve complex communications between camera and flashgun are enabled by 3xxx series adapters. These functions include, in addition to those of the earlier adapter series, motor zooming of the flash reflector (where available) to match the lens focal length, and variable ambient to fill-flash ratios, and I'm certain a lot of other functions I've never heard of.
