Anyone have any suggestions? Cheers James OK, here's my suggestions: 1. Perhaps the camera deliberately underexposes slightly with flash - keep it with +1 comp. and forget about it? 2. A lens-specific problem. With P-TTL, the pre-flash is at full aperture, and the strength of the main flash is calculated from this. If the lens stops down to say f/11 when it should be f/8, you'll get underexposure. I've run into exactly this problem recently. Test by comparing images in manual mode (no flash) with the same settings, but do 1 shot with the aperture set in-camera (i.e. lens on A), and another with the aperture set to the same nominal value using the lens aperture ring. Exposures should be identical, so any difference means the aperture actuator (either on lens or body) is miscalibrated. 3. P-TTL seems to use focus distance in its calculations, so perhaps close-up pictures using bounce flash cause the camera to throttle the flash output too much? Again, mis-information from the lens re distance (is it a Pentax lens?) may be a cause. David -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
Re: K10D with AF540FGZ
Except that lack of TTL flash turns some of the not-so-old Pentax flashes (such as my 330 FTZ) into purely manual guns which are actually less useful than some of the really old guns (like the AF280T) which at least have an auto sensor in the gun. The 330 FTZ gives good results in TTL mode on my DS so Pentax must have improved the situation since the release of the D. Lack of TTL flash support in the newer DSLRs is going to be really annoying when I get around to upgrading.
