Yet another flash question...

I have seen this thread, and did have the little beast of a flash at one stage. I tried it both on my K100D and K10D - sold it off before my K20D.

Used it in manual mode - that was how I ensured it gave me consistent results.
Otherwise it was inconsistent for me - seeing as though it's not TTL on these cams, how can it be?

The fact that you get good results with your cam is quite fortunate, though I'm personally much happier with my 540 in P-TTL mode.

Your K20D does not support TTL so the 280T may not be all that easy to use - some say you can throw it in A mode, but it will probably give you inconsistent results. Better off going manually with such flashes.

A P-TTL flash makes things a little easier since it has the ability to talk to the K20D and get exposure right automatically (at least on paper). Shouldn't be much drama with something like a Katz-eye split screen, but other third party screens may cause metering inconsistencies.

Look into the strobist.com website for more info on the topic.
