A professional flash for the Pentax family of SLR cameras, the Pentax AF-360 FGZ works with everything from the original 67 to today's 645N & MZ-S, MZ-SD or Digital *ist series cameras.
Full manual control of flash output is possible, or use the TTL flash capabilities of the camera it is mounted on to achieve painless exposure with every aperture. The pop-up flash incorporated into many Pentax 35mm SLRs can be used to trigger the AF-360 FGZ wirelessly, and when combined with the MZ-SD or *ist D camera this is done with TTL metering!
NOTE: Off-camera corded TTL or P-TTL flash with the AF-360 FGZ requires two pieces; either Hot Shoe Adapter F (catalog #31022) or Hot Shoe Adapter Fg (catalog #31045) and Extension Cord F5P or Extension Cord F5PL (37347 & 37349 respectively).
