In other words, it will not work with dedicated non Metz, non SCA-3000 flashes like the Leica SF20. In the case with your MZ 40, it will work to keep the SCA-3000 shoe on your camera and the flash on a bracket. The end of the extension cord has a flash shoe (dead-no contacts) on it which is also threaded for 1/4-20. Regards, Robert At 03:56 PM 2/1/2002 -0800, you wrote: >I guess my subject sums it up.
