Originally posted by MPrince I have a Promaster 5250DX. It's a two piece flash-the flash unit itself and a module which is Pentax-compatible with Manual, Auto, and TTL modes. There is also a module for this flash which is P-TTL, and modules compatible with other camera makes.
I think all the Promasters are like that.
Promaster makes two lines -- the 5000 series uses modules like you describe (basically, the flash has interchangeable "feet" which contain the different protocol electronics). The 7000 series comes in different "dedicated" versions for each camera brand.
