hi,
maybe only a guess, but i shoot with a RZ pro II with the leaf adapter and aptus 65 and had some problems in flash sync by using the hotshoe. it just didn't sync in time with lens/back. so maybe hat's the same story with internal communication to the adapter or back. since verything is cabled, flah sync also to the back, i never had any problems with black frames. if you can borrow an adapter plate without contacts somewhere, start the cabled version to find the problem. but anyway, if it's more than five in a houndred frames, you should contact your mamiya dealer/service for propper solutions.
best regards,
marcel
