I have heard that you need to watch your voltage when purchasing an older flash, thanks for the reminder. >Norm - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of langhans Sent: Monday, August 25, 2003 5:46 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: RE: [Leica] Flash advice for Leica R8 Norm. I am not familiar with that Sunpak, but if it is like my older Sunpak you have to buy a device to limit the voltage so you don't fry you camera. I have a Sunpak 311 and a 611 and both would fry my R8 if I didn't use the voltage reducer.
