    Vintage Electronic Flash to Camera

    Hi,

    I have a 1970s era flash which I would like to connect to a modern digital camera, via a Wein safe synch hot shoe with a female PC connection. I would like to connect the old flash to the female PC connection on the hot shoe.

    Attached are several photos of the connector as it is. PC-1 is a shot of the connector as it comes from the flash, wired directly to the flash. The larger circle is about 0.5 mm wide, and is threaded on the outside. The inner circle is about 0.2 mm in diameter. PC-2 shows the connector from the flash, together with some type of adaptor. PC-3 shows the adaptor attached to the connector, and PC-4 is a shot of the PC connector on the camera.

    Does anyone recognizes the name of this type of connector? And if so, I would appreciate knowing what type of connector/adaptor I would need to attach the connector directly to the female PC connection of the Wein safe sych hot shoe.

    Sandy
