Thanks for hr link SS. Bookmarked

btw, I have similar 'old camera info ' websites Bookmarked that I used to find that my old Sunpak 'Potato Smasher' Flash would fry my Nikon's electronics (and all new digital cameras) without using a voltage reducer (WEIN Safe Sync) on the hot shoe.

And it works. The only thing is with my Sunpak on my Nikon I have to turn the Strobe output dial down to 1/64 power for shots to 20'. I could prolly light up my cul-de-sac at night with it at 100% :-)

But I never posted any links because I didn't want to be accused by some 'apparently over medicated' person as a blog pimp ;-)

The “blog pimp” thing gets out of hand sometimes. If someone tells me about a blog or site with interesting content I appreciate it.

I have an old AGFA handle flash that is/was TTL capable for 35mm film cameras of the 80’s+. I never got the Canon TTL sync cord for my A-1, but I was wondering if it could be used for my Rebel T3i? Any chance you could point me in the right direction for information? I'm sure if I could get this one working I could take flash pictures to 100’ or more.
