(but i dont want to buy an extra flash just for the leica, which i use mostly without flash); i use automatic setting on the flash, mostly with underexposure of one aperture vallue for colour negs (i.e. flash setting f 4, camera setting f 5,6); if there are any problems, than, when i forget to set the flash from TTL (after use on my nikon F4) to automatic (overexposure occures, no picture :-(. very often i work also with manual flash setting (benefit: more light-control in close focusing range, more flexibility with wide open apertures). regards, thomas böhm imst, austria - --- Gary Francis <gary.francis@telstra.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Does any one have any experience in using a Nikon SB28 with a Leica M6 > TTL, > with the flash used in auto mode.Any detrimental effect's on camera or > flash? > > To head off some possible replies, I do not want to use the TTL > facility, no > hand holding of flash.
