My first new flash I tried was a YONGNUO YN460 which behaves exactly like the Vivitar--no flash action.
However, when I tried my old Achiever DZ260 (that I use on my K-1000), it works like a champ.
Hard to believe that I received two out-of-the-box failures from two different companies.
Any ideas?

And yes, the flash
does trigger off when I short the center pin with contacts on the side of the foot base.
What to try next, please?
