Re: Pentax k-50 and Metz Mecablitz 52

Thanks edhannon,

I agree with you if I have a burst rate of a shot every 3 seconds. But I wonder how I can rely on a flash that heavy underexposes 1 shot every 10 seconds and, in the same burst, overexposes a couple of images. I better think of a bad data exchange between camera and flash. The green light on the flash is always on when the camera shots.

Has anyone else experienced such a behaviour?

By the way: I had similar problems with with Kx and the small Metz 36 AF-5.

Thanks!

P.S.: I run a set of bursts (10 shots spanning 10" each) either with the named flash or with the internal one, brand new flash cells e properly charged. While the result with the external flash didn't change, none of those with the builtin one failed.
