I'm taking a class and we're using a variety of studio strobes. I'm using my
Pentax ZX-7, which doesn't have a PC sync socket. I purchased a hotshoe
adapter from Hama, which worked fine the past two weeks, but yesterday, I
couldn't get the studio strobes to fire. Others in the class had no problems
with the same setup.
I tried swapping sync cords, tried a different hotshoe adapter, tried
reversing the polarity on the sync cord (A PC to household cord), tried
reversing the hotshoe adapter, turned the camera off and on again lots of
times. Nothing. I can't think of anything that I did differently yesterday
compared to the last two weeks.
Just to check my hotshoe wasn't fried, I plugged in my TTL flash cable to my
Sigma 430 flash and that worked just fine.
So what's going on here?
