Today something very strange was happening. When I pulled the camera out to shoot, the light meter was not working. I have been leaving the camera in the OFF position when it is in my bag. After about twenty images the light meter started to work again. Then I put the flash on and the light meter stopped working again. It is my understanding that the TTL does not work when the camera has no batteries, but I thought that the camera would still sync the flash. When the light meter was not working, the flash simply would not fire. I am using a Metz 32Z-2. Has anyone seen this before? Is there something I am doing wrong or does the camera need to go back to Leica and get looked at? Sam
