Free Minolta Maxxum 5400xi
I was given a free Minolta Maxxum Flash 5400xi flash. I can put it into the slave mode, with the red light blinking but it does not respond to the control signal from my HVL-F20AM mounted on my camera. Is there anyway I can use this flash? Should I toss it?
Don't hold me to this, but it seems like I read somewhere that the older Minolta Maxxum accessories, specifically the flash, used a different voltage and may not work on a newer camera. I would dig for some specs on the flash to see if it's compatible.
I found a website that provides a bit of info, but I don't know if it will help you much.
