Hi Miguel,

Well, I am not Bob, but here's an answer anyway:

I use on my R8, with or without the DM-R, several Metz flashunits: 54MZ-3. and 
the 44MZ-2 both with SCA 3502 M-3. And the 50MZ5 with a SCA 3501-adapter.
These work great with film and fairly with the DM-R (with some limitations).

Regards,

Fred

    Sorry to say no experience with the SB series on R8 or R9.


    I use the Metz with Leica R adaptor for full functionality.

      Hello Guys,


      I searched the list archives but I couldn't find anything on Nikon SB800 
flashes and R cameras. Is anyone using this flash on R8/R9s and can share his 
experiences? I'm assuming TTL will not work but Auto and manual modes (on the 
flash) should work just fine. Other than the TTL issues, are there any 
compatibility problems?


      Thanks,


      Miguel Asensio
