Cobra 700 Af Flash
That sounds like you have been setting the camera's internal flash mode and not the flashgun itself. "RE: D70s, trying to use Cobra 700AF speedlight (used pr" I have tried manual flash mode, TTL, Commander,you name it I have tried it. Printer-friendly page Edit 2. High Quality Disposable Cameras Under $4/eachFun To Give Guests. I am trying to use the Cobra 700AF flash unit my father used with his Nikon F-801 film camera of 20 years ago. The biggest demerit (as others have mentioned)is battery life. And I'm buying a Nikon next! Feels good to hold, ergonomically sound, well thought out overall design. Maxxum 9xi, 700si, 600si, Maxxum 7, maxxum 5, 500si needed AF function switch worked on, sold before bothering. When it was 5 years old when I discovered the aperture on my 28-80xi lens wouldn't stop down. The AF is showing its age though, and whilst adequate for my purposes cannot live with more modern cameras in this department. A lens problem ,but nonetheless telling of minolta's build quality. . I'm not familiar with the Cobra flashguns but older Nikon in dash gps unit compatible flashguns won't work with DSLRs in TTL mode. input type="hidden" id="hidProductDescAll" value="DescriptionEarly, discontinued, autofocus SLR. As this flash is Nikon dedicated the sync voltage will be low, certainly much lower than the 240v that Nikon DSLRs are capable of handling. or so i hoped- country music fan clubs this would be the first SLR that i would own after tinkering with the stock for years!
And i was not dissapointed- after five years of use its safe to say that the metering system is superb, delivering correct exposures in most circumstances; the camera is superbly built and extremely robust and the built-in flash is more than adequate for most occassions. Only glitch that finally showed up, was when you went to choose which AF sensor you wanted to use, it would only pick the bottom one, or all. At least Tamron does a full 6year warranty. It is unlikely that the flash has a non-TTL auto mode (not many AF dedicated flashguns have this mode), but if the flashgun has trinity catholic school ocala a manual option then this will work. . I didnt part with it until Dec 2001, and then to buy more minoltas ! !I put this camera thru hundreds of rolls of film, and never had a misfire. Other than that, I loved it, great size, durable, accurate. I see numerous reviews with praise for its durability, but mine was 3 years old when I mailed it back to fix a shutter curtain that wouldn't close. Printer-friendly page Edit 1. Superb metering,build quality, flash, ergonomics. If the flash has day spa in pittsburgh only a TTL mode and la jolla country club nothing else then insulating the three smaller contacts on the hotshoe should allow it to fire at full power, this will also allow your camera to sync at higher speeds than the 1/500 it is allowing at the moment (the camera will think that no flashgun is present). it is a more dated generation of cameras, no new ones made in years, so not much of a weakness, just give it a close look over before purchase. I'm getting a Tamron 28-300 to upgrade this thing while I evaluate my next SLR purchase. The viewfinder is bright with extremely clear readouts and the controls very intuitive. Fast autofocus, especially in good lighting; great metering; excellent build quality; neat features with the expansion cards. cheap- 100-300 lens all for £130.

Very annoying! I am taking a read at the other thread on this topic. can take uniform physical condition standards anywhere with confidence heavy on Batteries (small price to pay considerign everything else) Minolts 7000i 9xi and now dynax 9 Five years asp radio button validation ago the camera shop where i worked was a month from closing down when a customer strolled up to the counter wanting to sell his 7xi and lenses. Wireless flassh with 3500/5400. Because of our situation the owner wasn't buying second-hand gear so i put in an offer myself and landed the camera, sigma 28-80, cobra 700af flash and an -admittedly v. In common with most Minolta SLRs it aint the prettiest beast but you know you can rely on it to take some knocks. wireless flash is superb, and wont be found in other cameras in this price range AF isnt great in low light, unless you have a strong flash on board. Intuitive controls and 1 button turns it into a point and shoot when you need to hand it off to someone. I've always thought it a frail camera. And i KNOW i didnt leave the camera switched on in the bag- i use AF and flash pretty consistently too so im still at a loss to understand this aberration. Better than most of the beginner SLRs out there today. Even though its an older model, compared to the Rebel 2000, the 7xi's autofocus is much faster, metering is more consistent, and the build quality is much much better. "RE: D70s, trying to use Cobra 700AF speedlight (used pr" Ah ha, now I see the "Search Nikonians box" and I am reading other threads about this with great interest. lovely metering always get skin tones just right, never under/overexposes, focus adequate for my use( weddings) solidly built, reliable. Thanks in advance for any help, Ken :). For its model, great AF, uses custom function cards that add a whole realm of possibilities to this camera that give it functions close to that of cameras 3 times the price. Holds up body wise, not prone to scratching or dust, was fairly easy on batteries. . " Bought this as a bargain was supposed to be faulty , turned out the batteries wered dead ( suprise )
I have owned 3 of these delightful cameras
each was bought second hand , and each time I sold to go to different make, always came back. having said that even five rolls is pretty poor albeit i get the batteries cheap (but not so cheap that it doesnt annoy me!)
All-in-all a great camera- my best results came last year when i covered my brothers wedding in addition to the official (and expensive) photographer and numerous people commented that they preferred my shots or thought that they were just as good- kudos to the 7xi tho, cos for chaska clothing mn tailor the most part i just left it on full auto and snapped away.
