Im getting a rb67 pros or pro sd depending on what I can find for christmas. I have decided to go for the mechanicle rb over the rz for the lack of electronic requirment. However I would like to know, can I use my flashes, or flash triggers on it? I can see what looks like a hotshoe on it, but I dont know how flashes of that period worked so I cant be 100% sure whether technologies are compatible?
thanks for the help. It doesnt matter if it doesnt or if I have to find a work around, but Id like to know before.

Cable connection to standard PC socket on the lenses.

Still brings a tear to my eye remembering the day I sold my Pro SD. Can't quite remember why I did it though - probably 'er indoors and her lebensraum requirements.
That side mounted hotshoe ain't hot. It's just an accessory shoe. It will hold a flash alright, but you'll still need to attach it by a cable to the PC socket in the lens.
Enjoy it. I'll buy another, one day.

Can you re-phrase that for the dyslexics among us..

I was the same when I sold off my Bronica gear, maybe someday I will get back into film as well as digital......

Wishful thinking I'm afraid.
I'd need all my cameras for that.
