[NTG-context] Newbie cant get \externalfigure to work

      Newbie cant get \externalfigure to work

 Just starting with Context
 I'm using 4TEX 5.0 (ver June 1999)
 I want to make a pdf document with some pictures
 In LaTex, this (postscript) works;
        \documentclass[a4paper]{article}
        \usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
        \begin{document}
        \frame{%
         \includegraphics{DSCN0043.eps}
        }%

           Some text
       \end{document}

 I try the same thing in Context
 and I get an empty box with 3 lines of text
 "name: dummy"
 "file: DSN0043"
 "unknown"
Heres my script:

 \setupoutput[pdftex]
    \useexternalfigure
    [appleblossom][DSCN0043]
    [type=eps,width=.4\makeupwidth]
 \starttext
  \startfiguretext
   [left]
   [fig:appleblossom]
   {none}
   {\externalfigure
    [DSCN0043]
    [type=eps,width=.4\makeupwidth,frame=on]}

   Some text
  \stopfiguretext
 \stoptext

log file says
 ConTeXt ver: 1999.5.11 fmt: 1999.6.4 int: english mes: english
 ...snip...
 systems        : begin file 2Context at line 23
 figures        : figure DSCN0043 can not be found

Thank you for your help
