Godfrey,
I suspected that it might be a bad adapter also, so I tried
it with an LX - worked fine on that.
I also tried a manual flash (vivitar 2850, not 285) and that
worked on the *ist DS.
I would be very disappointed if I cannot get this to work -
one of the main reasons I bought it was to use this Novatron
kit in my makeshift portrait studio (for all the advantages
of instant feedback that it can give.
I hope someone has tried something like this before! I
cannot be the first!

It sounds like there's something about that specific adaptor the DS
doesn't like. It may not be fitting on the shoe correctly.
