Realist/Revere Flash solutions
Here's my angle on the frequent question of fitting moderns
flashes on old stereo cameras.
I wouldn't DREAM of filing down the old flash-shoe's knob.
Instead, I've filed a groove in the plastic foot of a
flea-market, slip-on flash.
For the nicer flashes, like my Vivitar: I bought a used,
remote sensor cable that fits the flash's removable electric
eye sensor onto the camera's shoe and connects to the
bracket-mounted flash via a coiled cable. I carved a groove
into this foot, and therefore spared my nice flash and nicer
cameras.
