Originally posted by acecoder I have two Pentax MX cameras, one bought new in 1978, and another of similar vintage bought just recently. I have a new Godox TT600 flash and XT2 trigger. Off camera the flash and trigger all work perfectly. However neither camera will trigger the flash from the camera's hot shoe. Same with the trigger, does not fire from the hot shoe of either camera. I am waiting for a PC Sync cable to arrive from B&H so I can see if the flash and the trigger will work from the X connector on the front of the cameras instead. Meanwhile, any ideas about my hot shoe problem would be most welcome.
Are you setting the flash/trigger to manual operation ?
