I have few questions:
Which features are supported and how with 58 AF-2 coupled with K-x? I just bought one and noticed that the different flash modes work when changing them on the camera itself - but changing the flash EV on the camera doesn't seem to have any affect. I'm wondering what else is like this.
Another thing - the manual says:
"A broken (— — —) beep signal directly after a shot indicates that the shot
was correctly exposed"
I hear three broken beeps when I set the ISO too high. The manual doesn't mention this. I take it that it's a overexposure warning saince if I do take a pic, the turn out very bright... or well, no biggie, but...
The manual also says:
" If no beep signal sounds, then the shot was underexposed" - but what about overexposure? :P
If I do overexpose, I get two quick beeps. The manual doesn't mention this either.
These aren't really (big) issues, but a first timer like me gets confused quickly. I've so far found 2 things missing from the manual after just a day with the flash.
Something I've been wondering about
: how does the flash meter how much power is needed - say I point the flash, or the meter rather - towards a dark wall, but the flash itself is turned upwards so it can bounce off the bright ceiling. Id suspect such situation to result in a very underexposed lighting (wrong metering + loss of light because of bouncing), but it doesn't seem to be the case at all. Instead I've been getting pretty much perfect to slightly overexposed results in both P-TTL and Auto modes.
These are probably just some beginnerish questions - I do like the power the flash is putting out, and despite what I've read, I don't find the menu system cumbersome.. well, ok, that was the AF-1
