Cobra D650

Posted 21/02/2012 - 12:11 Link
Ive just recently got into photography.Im using a Pentax k-x.
I wanted to get a flash to practise shooting a friends band playing in local clubs.Didnt want to spend a lot until I knew what I was doing so ordered a used Vivitar 283 flashgun from Ebay.
However Ttoday I recieved a Cobra dedicated D650.Says on the back for Nikon.
I put it on the camera and it worked straight away but is it the right one for the camera,I dont want to mess the camera up so wont be using it again, unless I get thumbs up from here.
Thanks

The cobra 650 should be safe to use as it has a reported output voltage of 5.6V. Note I say should not will be OK - there is no 100% guarantee unless it is a dedicated flash

As for whether it is the right flash for you - depends what you want - you will not get any PTTL functionality but it will work as a standard auto flash

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more
