Subject: [Leica] Re: Flash Sync with X-Contact

The Metz 32 MZ-3 with SCA 3501 module will work off
the hotshoe of the M6TTL. A Nikon SC-17 cord (actually
you can daisychain up to 3 of them) will work at
extending this flash off camera. If you want
multi-flash TTL, you should consider a couple of Nikon
Flashes (SB-24, 25 26 or 28) each connected to an
SU-4. Of course, instead of the Metz as the primary
flash, you could always use the SC-20 as your main.

The SU-4 allows Nikon flashes to be operated in
wireless TTL or manual mode. If you just want manual
mode, any flash with a peanut will do. Ikolite also
makes wireless TTL units that work with non-Nikon
flashes.

Hope this helps. Feel free to contact me if you have
other questions.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could suggest a flash system
(maybe Metz or
others) that could work with M6TTL through the
X-Contact and probably
off
the camera, either TTL or manual.  This flash should
be able to control
multiple flashes (slave) remotely at the same time. 
Another question
is,
any chance of a high speed sync with M6TTL?

K.K.
