I forgot to mention that the Metz-54 MZ4 as you know
is a complete and complex flash, it needs to be
adjusted using the Mode button till the mode TTL
appears, it is stored after 5 seconds if the setting
disk is not pressed. I think it would be better if you
try the entire system Flash-SCA adapter-Camera with
film loaded into the camera.-
All the best
