I have 2 older Vivitar flash units, a 352 and a 283. I know that their voltage is too high for my a330. The 352 connects by a PC cord and the 283 has a hot shoe and PC cord. Which Wein product would allow the safe use on my camera?

Call B&H camera. They carry Paramount that I have used and Wein and can steer you in the right direction.800.894.9703

Wein Safe-sync. There are several versions of this depending on how you want to connect your flash to the camera.

I ordered the Wein unit and don't see how to attach it to my camera. It does not just slide on. Any thoughts?

My Safe Sync slides into my Hot Shoe and has given me safe operation for my several Vivitars. Also, it has a PC connection, but you have to get it into the hot shoe to fire.

My a330 has the old style hot shoe. I had to order an adapter, Pixel TF 325. Thanks for your response.
