Close, you may have missed my message to Paul about the change in
behavior if I actually feed in a focal length for the set up. This
now stops it firing at full power, but does not get the exposure
correct.
I can now dial in an exposure adjustment on the camera camera and have
it affect the
I agree the P-TTL doesn't seem to do much. But that could still mean
you're having trouble from being outside the metering range of the
preflash. What happens if you open the aperture all the way? If that
makes the preflash register with the camera, you should get
underexposure. :-)

I do at the moment, but it means I am adjusting the manual power on 2
flashes, which is annoying. I'm just trying to make my life easier.

Leon,
I don't have any A lens suitable for testing right now, but I'm a bit
curious. How is the lens described in the file metadata? Is there
any difference between K-7 and the older cameras there?

I hadn't looked at the metadata from my A400 in detail until you asked. From a
recent shoot with the K-5, it's described as an A series lens, and the focal
length is noted as 400mm. The focal length was apparently derived from the
shake reduction setting, because with a couple of shots where I
Hi Jostein,
The metadata shows the lens as A series lens in Adobe Bridge or A
lens in Pentax Digital Camera Utility. It's the same for if the lens
is on the K7 or the K10D.

Hi Paul,
The A 400 seems to be behaving the same as my setup when recording the
information. I have discovered that if I set the shake reduction the
flash behaves differently and doesn't fire at full power all the time.
I normally don't bother to set it as it seems unnecessary given I'm
Leon,
Combining the info from this thread and another, you have a setup with
two AF-360FGZ flashes, a 30mm (or thereabouts) lens on bellows with up
to 25mm extension. The lens is stopped down to f/16, and the
flash-to-subject distance is about 10 cm for both flashes. I assume
both flashes are in
I need to find out more about this, because it doesn't work for me.
At least, not with the lens I use.
I'll admit it's not your normal A lens, but this set up worked on the
MZ-S and the *istD and I'd love to have it work on the K7 (or the next
camera upgrade). I have added A contacts to a set of
