If I remember correctly, in the old days where the sensor is a strip of film, TTL measures reflections off the film and adjust on the fly. Does that work on sensors? In any case, now we will return to the expected "Why are you using a flash on the M?" vs. "I always use a flash" debate :-) On Tue, Oct 5, 2010 at 2:30 PM, Tom Schofield <tomschofield at comcast.net>wrote: > I found, much to my chagrin, that there is no ttl flash with an m9 and sf20 > or Metz 54mz + sca3502.
