It ONLY works with the Metz 54 MZ-3 and all the settings are done on 
the flash itself. Works at 1/250, 1/500, and 1/1000 only, and it does 
it by firing several times and exposing the negative in sections. 
Manual (not TTL or Auto) only, though it can be set for partial power 
down to 1/64 in 1/3 stop increments.
