Hi Derrick. Do you know if there is a way to disable the split second pre-flash on the Casio EX-P505? I have a number of external flash slaves that I have used with my Casio QV-4000 to great effect but they don't work with my EX-P505. The pictures come out very dark because the slaves fire on the pre-flash and not the "real" flash. I guess I could look into some adaptor that can handle the digital pre-flash and fire the flash on the second pulse but I'd prefer to just disable the pre-flash altogether like I can on the QV-4000. Do you know if this is possible? I've tried emailing Casio America and exchanged about three rounds of e-mails but they keep missing the point by bringing up "red-eye" reduction, etc. they don't understand what I'm talking about. Thanks in advance.
