[net.rec.photo] Cannon dedicated flash on a Nikon ????

jmleask@wateng.UUCP (Jim Leask) (02/07/84)

Is there any problem using a Cannon dedicated flash with a
Nikon FE camera?  I realize that the dedicated feature will
not work, however it really isn't much of a problem to
set the camera to 1/125.  I happen to have a Cannon flash that
is for a AE1, but my camera is a Nikon FE.  Some of the dedicated
flash connections are aligned , but (obviously?) the circuits are different.
Is there any chance that these will conflict to the point of
damaging either the flash or camera. (I recently had to have the
light meter repaired, and wonder if the flach actually could
have caused the damage)
