Re: Jessops Dynax flash compatibility with A200?
|
James,
Hi and welcome to the forum
Quote:
Jessops 280AFM flash, with a Dynax hot shoe fitting. I'm lead to believe it'll fit because the connector is the same, but I've read in some places to be careful about electrical compatibility
It will fit your Alpha and as far as I'm aware shouldn't cause issues electrically

Is there any reason why the 280AFM flash would cause damage to the A200 body, or is it OK to use?
As long as it is the Minolta flash fit and you don't try to force anything it should be OK, however, I'm pretty certain that the 280AFM is a TTL only flash unit and as such will not give you the results you may hope for, unfortunately, DSLR's require Flash units designed to work with Digital and for the Sony/Minolta system you are looking for ADI flash units such as the Minolta 3600 HSD unit or the Sony equivalent.
