    Mamiya rb67 flash

    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.
