HI, I also have the Metz Mecablitz 44 AF-1 and the K200D. There really isn't much to it: Just follow the instructions on page 90 in the Metz manual. Select TTL / Press the TTL-button on the flash; select an appropriate mode (P, Av, Tv) on your K200D and lightly press the shutter release to establish camera-flash communication. And off you go.......
