Originally posted by UncleVanya Isn't emulating analog ttl exactly what the v6 is supposed to do?
Class A addressed this nicely. As near as I can tell, the problem lies with the AF500FTZ and supported protocols. I went back to the flash manual and found this gem on page 10, "When mounted on non-K
AF2 or K
AF cameras, the AF500FTZ works only in the manual mode and dedicated/TTL operation is not possible." There are three Pentax TTL flash protocols: 1) analog TTL, 2) digital TTL, and 3) digital P-TTL. The AF500FTZ apparently only supports #2.*
I have edited my previous post to reflect this.

* My Sigma EF 610 DG Super has a similar limitation and is also on the V6 "Don't Work" list. It supports digital TTL/P-TTL, but not analog TTL
