Fill in flash with M7

[michel_vandeput]

Dear Leica friends,

 

<p>

 

I am dreaming about new M7.

A few questions. I suppose the new M7 is also TTL with older classic flashes only in manual position (1/50sync).

Does it work with SF20 LEICA flash in fill-in operation? I suppose there will be no difference with the M6 TTL.

If I choose the new METZ flash, specially made for high speed with M7, is the fill-in flash still possible in auto position or only in manual position (as with M6TTL)?

Thank you and best regards from Belgium.

Regarding the HSS mode with the M7, look <a

here</a>.

Now regarding the TTL mode, with the M7 in manual, the SF20 and Metz

with SCA 3501-3502 work like with the M6TTL. With the M7 in AE mode,

they will automatically switch the speed to 1/50s.

There is no new flash for the M7. The only flash unit working in HSS

mode with the M7 is the Metz 54-MZ3 + SCA3502, and that combination was

on the market since Photokina 2000.
