Flash and Meter Questions

[John Koehrer]

Terry,
No problem with leakage as the meter and flash circuits are separate. The 283 will work with a hot shoe if you unplug the cord.
The safe sync looks like a small cube with a male shoe on the bottom and female on top. It's about 3/4" tall.
So you put the SS in the shoe & slide the flash into it. Just like stacking alphabet blocks.

Thanks john,
I'm really concerned about my Friend's XD 11 and it's auto programs being effected by the high voltage! That's my question now! With the Vivitar 2000 flash. There's no money to buy a safe snyc anyways. IF there is a problem between the flash and the camera then just not use the flash till a snyc can be purchased, I wonder about now!
I hope some people can say? Thanks for the info all!!
