K-S1 - K-S2 Bounce Flash Performance

johnbachel · 02-11-2015, 05:22 PM

Hi - I'm wondering if the fix for the problem with TTL bounce flash exposure that existed on the K-5 has been fixed on these new bodies. My understanding that the problem is resolved on the K-3, but haven't seen anything about users experience with the new K-S bodies.

Thanks.

I've not noticed any problems with bounce on my K-S1, John.

For what its worth, the bounce flash issues are fixed in the K5. Just make sure you have the latest firmware and are not using auto iso.

K-S2 bounce flash is fine with both AF-360FGZ I & II.
