  1. I am scratching my head for nearly two houres now, here is the problem: I am using the SF-58 on M9. TTL works fine, but there is a problem with Auto Mode and bounce flash. In Auto Mode I am supposed to set the aperture manually on lens and flash (ISO info from camera). Here is what happens: Set aperture to f2.8 on lens and flash > exposure fine. Set aperture to f8 on lens and flash > exposure 3 stops underexposed (as if flash is still set to f2.8) I put the flash head to rest position, then back to bounce position > exposure is fine! Same thing the other way around, then with overexposure issue. Is this normal? I don't understand this behavior. I tried several times, always with the same result. Is the flash supposed to be in rest position to change its output via its aperture setting? Thank you very much!
  2. I got my M9 from Adorama 12/23 and my SF 58 flash from PopFlash on 12/24. I have had a very hard time sliding the flash into/onto the hotshoe and an even harder time getting it back out/off - even with the metal pin all the way retracted - any advise (shall I sandpaper the edges of the SF 58 shoe - anyone ..?? ). I am almost scared to use the SF 58 in fear of not getting it off or damaging my M9
  3. Some reservations about going for the exhorbitant price: 1. Do all ther complex interactions between camera and flash delay the shutter trigger time? 2. Can the pre-flash/red eye preventer thing be turned off? Doesn't it slow things down and alert people that a picture is going to be taken? 3. Is there any provision for an external power source? 3-4 secs doesn't seem very good if I'm shooting rapidly? 4. Would the fact that I keep lens recognition turned off affect the available features on the unit?
  4. Hello everyone, I am close of pulling the trigger on a Leica flash and my intended application would be for outdoor fill flash. Does any of the two flashes offer a high-sync shutter speed on M9? On a DSLR system, I normally cut the flash output by 1 or 2 stops and the fill flash will be just enough to open up some shadows and create some catch lights in the eyes. On a recent extensive photo trip where I took both system, I felt that need for my M9 to do that but since I didn't have any flash for it, I ended up using more my DSLR system. The resulting shutter speed there was mostly higher than 1/2000 sec as I normally used large apertures. Since there is plenty of light, the need for more flash power should create any issues, I am considering the smaller and less expensive SF 24 but if SF 58 offers the high-sync feature then I would go for it. Any input is appreciated. Thank you, Joshua Shortly after I posted this I found out that I was able to find the answer to my question LOL. Sorry.
