No, there is nothing wrong with your flash. Your flash, Metz 44 af1 (or it's af2?) can work wireless, only as a slave flash and only with cameras that support the wireless A-TTL system of Samsung NX, and that's only NX1 and NX30. These cameras have a built-in pop up flash that is able to work as a master flash. Unfortunately the small flash of your Camera, SEF 8, can't work as master.

There are wireless settings on the menu, which are disable now, just to work with Samsung SEF580 flash, which can work as a master on your camera to control slave flashes wireless.

The JJC FC-NX TTL-Off-Camera Flash Cord it's the cheapest way to use your flash off camera.
