Point and Shoot and External Flash

john5100 · 11-22-2016, 03:06 PM

Hi all

I have a Nikon Coolpix A however this could apply to any P&S with a hot shoe. Does anyone use an external flash? I thought about getting the SB-300 however I wasn't sure I would use it with such a small camera.

Thanks

John

It should work fine, as long as it covers the relatively wide focal length (which it should, since there's no lens shading).
