Subject: [Leica] Flash and R8
From: SP <spaniel@pacbell.net>

I bought a Stroboframe for mounting my R8 and new METZ 40MZ-3. Attached
to the top of the R8 is an SCA3007A, to which is attached an SCA 3501.
When I power up the R8 and 40MZ-3, both go on but the SCA3007A/SCA 3501
combination does not light up and when I press the shutter button the
flash does not activate. The SCA3007A would appear to require batteries
but I cannot determine any way to open it for placement of same. Do any
of you fellow Leica users have any tips? I would GREATLY appreciate
them! Thanks in advance.
