IIRC, the new adapter needs the new MZ-4 version. I have no idea what happens if you connect the new adapter to the old MZ-3 though. I just remember Metz telling me that the MZ-4 is required.
If you can find a shop that lets you try before buying, that's your best bet.
This is going from old memories... :-)
