Subject: [Leica] Pentax TTL set up for off the camera TTL flash

A few people enquired about the Pentax set up for TTL flash so I thought I
would post this to the list. The Pentax cables and adapters are sold
separately Here are links to each part:

You have to remove the travel limit on the "Off Camera (Hot) Shoe Adapter F"
so that the SF-20 goes all the way on. It is more expensive way to go than
the Nikon and Contax cables but it is nice to be able to mount finders.
