Metz Flash

[turkeyman]

I have just obtained a Metz 45cl 4 flash unit.
I have been told that I have to have certain modules
for it to work with my new D800. Can anyone help?

Welcome to the forum. Quite why you couldn't find this yourself, I don't know. Turns out you need an SCA 3402 M10. Probably.

What kind of a welcome is that to a new member ! and what kind of a reply is that to a question ?
Does he need a SCA 3402 M10. or does he probably need a SCA 3402 M10?
If you can't be civil and factual don't respond !

It's a quite reasonable response, I think. I welcomed the new member to the forum. I pointed out that the information they wanted was in fact quite easy to find. I gave them a link not just to the Metz website, but something that would get them close to what they needed to purchase. I named the item that I thought they might need, but since I didn't have the EXACT model name of their flashgun, I couldn't be quite certain that was what they wanted, so wrote probably. I think I was as factual as I could be, without having the precise details of the OP's equipment in my grubby little mitts.

Civil? Well, you get what you find. The OP was quite straightforward about what was wanted, no introductions or civilities there. 'Can anyone help? was the last sentence. I think I did, even if I was a bit brusque about it. No one else responded, civil, factual, or otherwise.
