Most DSLRs can handle up to 250V whereas the trigger voltage of most flashes is only a fraction of that. It's always good to check the max voltage that your camera can handle and the trigger voltage of your flashes. The combination described by the OP is fine.


Thanks for the quick response. I have a couple of Nikon SB 50's, do you think they would work with the Nikon D7000? I also have a pair of SB15's I think. I am not very experienced with flash usage. I also have the older Nikon d70 camera--I'll have to check voltages. Thanks

That flash will work, just make sure you use a diffuser on it, otherwise you get hot spots and hard light. If you don't have that flash and you're thinking about buying one then I'd suggest an old Nikon flash instead - I have a couple of SB24 units which provide rotation and tilt functionality whereas the Pentax doesn't.


Hi--just wondering--can you use the film camera flash units on a digital camera? I thought they had a too powerful output that would effect the camera. Thanks for any answers.

[tand what you are talking about.quote=ArgusSnap1]Hi-thanks for the quick reply! What is focus peaking? KEH also has a Panasonic DMC-G5 with the movable lcd and a eye level viewfinder in bargain cond. for about $30 more although Im not sure I want a bargain camera. I have a Panasonic FZ150 which I love that seems similiar to the DMC-g5. I am looking to not spend lots of money but do want to play with all my old lenses. Any suggestions?[/quote]

Hi Screaming Scott--the Olympus looks like a great deal. I researched focus peaking so I understand what your talking about. They are also selling Olym FL-LM1 flashes for pennies which might be useful for macro work? I like picking yor brain since I enjoy your photos and all your gadget wizardly. Not sure I can afford it this month but maybe.Thanks

I have adapters to use my older legacy lenses from Nikon, Minolta, Konica, Pentax, Leica, et al on both my EP-3 as well as my newer OM-D-M10. Since the registration distance is so shallow on mirrorless cameras, a simple mechanical adapter is all that is needed and there are many inexpensive ones on the market. The EP3 doesn't have focus peaking, but it isn't difficult to acquire focus with practice. You can magnify the image to assist in focusing though.

Hi Sceamin Scott--I love your photo! I am looking to buy a Olympus Pen E-p3 now used at a cheap price through KEH. I have some older Nikon lenses but also older Minolta MD manual lenses and lots of other misc lenses. Does this camera do well adapting to older lenses like the above mentioned and some m42 and m39 lenses? Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

For the reason you mentioned it is difficult to expect much. If someone happens to have one, then it has value as spare parts to the ibdividual who is handy with tools abd has the right one. As a dream figure I would start at $25. I note you are in California, so the shipping might be as much as that, about. Thanks for the ibquiry.


Hi I am interested in it. do you still have the slide and neg holders? I am intertested in it for $25 and shipping if it has the holders and power cord. I will pm you.

Newer cameras sensors are less sensitive to IR light & as such, require greater exposure times. I used to use a Hoya R 72 IR pass filter (729nm) on my Nikon D70s for IR shots. After shooting, I still had to swap the red & blue channels in PS in order to get the IR effects. Thing was though, my camera could still auto focus with the filter on & the shutter speeds were not that long. The D70s had a CCD sensor, not a CMOS sensor though. Haven't tried using the filter on either any of my current cameras though. Oh, yes, you still needed a custom WB taken from grass for best results.

Hi --will that be the case with a Nikon D70? Thanks

I have decided to say goodbye to Lightroom and have a number of publications available for what I hope will be viewed as a win-win.
The condition of these books is used but good. Some have marks in them, many do not and I’m not going to identify them.
The books will have the title, author and the original price of the book. Now pay close attention! You pay what you think would be fair.
I will mail the books at the post office at a book rate so add a couple of dollars to help defray the cost (or not.)
I want to empty my shelf and no offer will be rejected. It’s strictly first-email-first-serve. I will decide who gets what by the date and time on the email.
I hope this works for everyone interested.
1.How Do I Do That in Lightroom---Scott Kelby $29.95
2. Lightroom 6/CC Training for Photographers—Tony & Chelsea Northrup--$29.99

4. Teach yourself Lightroom (includes un-played disc) Chris George, editor--$29.99

The "Teach yourself Lightroom" by Chris George is it for Lightroom 6?
