first dose any one have an old sunpak auto zoom 933 dedicated? if so is it safe to use it on a k10d?
i know that it has to have a certain volt range for it to work safely and i have got the manule and it does not say and i have a volt meter and really dont know how to use it so i thought i should ask to see if anyone has some insight.

thank you

Google 'flash trigger voltage' and you will find a few lists to check the trigger voltage on your Sunpak 933.

Otherwise buy yourself a Wein Synch-Safe to make sure.

Cheers

Here's a link to a trigger voltage site just in case anyone else needs it:

Photo Strobe Trigger Voltages
