I have recently started film photography, and love it, but I'm looking for a flash for my film camera/s.
The first camera is a Diana Mini, as seen here: http://microsites.lomography.com/dianamini/
Except mine has no flash. I could buy the flash for the camera, but they are really expensive and can only be used on that camera. OR I could get a hot shoe adapter, and could use a separate flash that connects to hot shoe, right?
Because I also have an old Pentax MX film camera like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_MX...
Which I thought that if I buy a flash that is able to clip on to a hot shoe, could work on this too.
But I don't really know too much about flashes syncing with cameras and such, so can someone help explain if this will work? And what would you recommend for my Diana Mini camera in the way of flash?
Any info welcome
