On the few occasions that I use it, I think the fact that the exposure is TTL rather than flash auto does help. Especially since in auto mode, you have to set the aperture and whatnot settings correctly on the flash unit. In TTL mode, since the camera tells the flash when to shut up, then the settings on the flash are advisory only. IMHO, FWIW, YMMV etc. // richard <http://www.imagecraft.com> <http://www.dragonsgate.net/mailman/listinfo> - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
