I bought a Nikon D5100 a week ago and my father has this old camera a decade ago (it was a Yashica with a Vivitar 2800 flash) and I tried to plug it in with my D5100. Everything was fine when I used it. Thank goodness, it didn't fry up the mechanics.
My only concern is I don't want to buy a Nikon Speedlight flash since it will cost me a fortune to have one. Although I'm planning to set it up with a hot shoe adapter from eBay, will it be safe to use on the long run?
Hope you could help me on this one. Thank you!
