Flash Post to PC Sync

Is there an adapter to use pc sync flashes on old cameras such as the Konica 1?

It figures, I finally found the connection and a solution. The connector is an ASA Bayonet. Adapter cords are available.

A lovely looking camera. I assume it is in working condition. There was a plethora of flash connectors back in the day but eventually they settled on the Zeiss type. You are lucky finding that.

Thank you for info!! I did never try yet any old cameras with flash.

The little camera seems to work. It was filthy, but mostly cleaned up ok. I would call it 'rough' condition. There is a fresh roll of Tri-X in it now, I will carry it doing my errands today. I did run some expired Arista through it.




The problem with finding an adapter was the nomenclature for the camera connection. I ordered the cord, it should be here by Monday the 14th. Twenty US dollars plus shipping seems a little pricey for the cord, but I plan to use the camera on vacation next month. Hopefully I will be posting some flash photos next week.

Glad the information helped.
