Syncro Flash For Canon A1

[WOODY]

Hi, Can Anybody Tell Me If There Is An Alternative Flash, Other Than The Speedlites 199a 177a Etc, That Will Be Compatable With My Canon A1. At The Moment I Use A Metz 45 Cl4, But I Can Only Use This In Conjunction With A Tripod, As I Find It To Heavy And Difficult, To Use Holding It As I Can Only Use My Left Hand. I Have Thought About Getting A 199a Speedlite, But Because Of The Age Of These Now I Wonder About There Reliabilty. Thank You.

Lots of info on A1 compatible guns HERE Woody.

I have a Starblitz 3800DEF flashgun which is compatible with my A1. I would think ebay is going to be your best bet for sourcing a suitable gun.

Thanks Ct I Bought A Canon Speedlite Today, In Mint Condition, With Case And Diffuser For £35 Didn't Think This Was A Bad Price.will Make Life Alot Easier, As I Will Be Able To Hold My Camera, Instead Of Putting It On A Tripod All The Time. Thanks Again.
