The Metz 32Z-2 is on the way with the SCA 3501 adapter. I do little macro and am sorry that I won't be able to use the off-camera cord - but not sorry enough to buy the 32Z-3 or 40MZ-2, or 3! I use very little flash and am also getting the little reflector screen (I had one of these before also). What happens if you use the SCA 3501 adapter on an R4?? Can you use it in "auto" non TTL??? Will it hurt the camera??? Of course I can always change to the non TTL adapter that comes with the flash unit, but it is a pain to change. Richard Hemingway Norman, OK
