Leica_Buddy Posted March 20 Share #1 Â Posted March 20 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) I recently got myself a Leica SF-40 flash for my M6-TTL and I need a little help with understanding how they work together, When I put the flash on the camera and set the speed dial to the sync speed, the only thing I get in the display is the TTL symbol. I do not get the exposure indicators. Is this the expected/normal operation for an M6-TTL and a Leica flash unit? Thanks! Â 5 minutes later... I figured it out, I hadn't advanced the film rewind lever! (What an embarrassing first post LOL!) Edited March 20 by Leica_Buddy 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leica_Buddy Posted March 20 Author Share #4  Posted March 20 I'v never used flash with my M6 before, so this is going to be a new experience for me. The SF-40 does not communicate with the lens, so in A and TTL the flash zoom sets itself to AUTO. Does anyone know what the default flash head zoom position is when the SF-40 not knowing what the lens is sets itself to AUTO? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
