Pentax released the non-TTL AF-200SA flash in the mid 1980’s, for use with the “A” & “P” series “program mode” film bodies. (Note the only camera in these two series that supported TTL flash was the Super A/Program, so I would use a TTL supported flash on that camera.) The AF-200SA has a fixed flash...

Back in the late 70s early 80s all my pictures were taken using this meter on an S1a and an SV. I mainly shot Kodachrome or Ektachrome slide film and as I recall all exposure was pretty good. It's pretty basic but once you become familiar with it it's a reliable tool. A minor design issue is; as it ...

This is a 'must have' piece of equipment if you use M42 mount lenses with a modern K mount SLR/DSLR. There are plenty of third party adapters out there, but it's always hit or miss as to their working properly or at worst damaging your camera mount. The Pentax item works flawlessly every time. A bri...

A great unit for the price. The build feels good. Plenty of output. Easy to use interface. The only issue I've experienced is with overheating on hot summer days, but this is no more an issue with this unit than any others so I don't fault this unit for that. Recommen ded.

Designed for use on the Pentax A*85/1.4 and A645 120/4.0 Macro - but also fits the FA*85/1.4 perfectly and effectively (the hoods for the FA* are almost extinct in the wild). Apart from the obvious job of reducing incidental light and reducing flare, it offers significant protection for the large fr...

I recently purchased this camera bag on sale at BHphotovideo for $349. Retail is $521.99. I currently own two other Billingham Bags so I'm already aware of their stellar quality and rainproof FiberNyte material. My FUJI system currently resides in this bag. It's quite large and that's exactly why I ...

I've been using this bag for over a year as my main bag to go to work and on all sorts of trips. For that it excels: one camera with lens attached and another lens fit in the two pouches, then food and other stuff goes at the bottom and I can also have my laptop. It's not perfect, there are times wh...

I was trying to remember how long I've had my Domke F3X, but couldn't recall exactly when I got it. It has to have been 25-30 years ago. During that time, it's been my main walk-about bag and is still going strong today. In fact, I took it on a video shoot just yesterday. I wore the rubber coati...

Note: Cactus 6V: Custom Flash Profile does not work with Pentax AF-500 or -330 FTZ.

Cheap.....and cheap. Cord started coming apart after 3 uses. Menu system could be a little easier to use. Gets the job done on a budget.
