Dear Sirs,
I bought Calumet Gensis 200 monolight.
It triigers with photocell and PC sync cord with 5V voltage.
With photocell it works fine. But the time delay in this case
is not acceptable. Because I use Genesis monolight as key light. But in case of photocell it gives1.5-2stop underexposure.
Therefore I want use it via sync cord.
With attached sync cord to my Pentax K20D DSLR camera
the flash fires only on first shoot.
All continuous shoots are without flash. To fire again I must turn off and on again the Genesis monolight or unplug and plug the cord again from camera or monolight. After first flash with sync cord even test button on monolight doesn't work.
If somebody can explain why this happens.
The manual of K20D writes that don't use PC sync socket with high voltage flash units. Then what for this socket on camera.
Thank everybody in advance why try to help me.
