Because having the flash on the rewind crank is a PITA. Unless you get the AS-7 which moves the shoe in front of the crank, and that unbalances teh camera worse if you don't have an MD-4 on it (The F3 is already awkward with a decent sized flash and no Motor drive). -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
