Subject: [Leica] Nikon flash on TTL

A Nikon flash will not work and modifying the cable will not make it work.
One Leica-User tried a SB-28 on his TTL and reported that the flash became
hot and the batteries in the camera died. If you need something more capable
than the SF-20, Metz makes compatible units in a variety of sizes and
function sets. They even make the SF-20 for Leica.
