Nikon SB600 with a EM-

[Longimanus]

Hi

Is there anyway I can use this flash with my new Oly EM-1?

Put it on the hotshoe.

Just wondered if I would blow anything? Better safe than sorry

I don't think so, I used my speedlights for my Nikon on my Fuji x20 with no issues. On camera and off camera via triggers.

I think it's older type flashes for film cameras that can cause issues.

Cheers, I will give it a go, I assume I will need some sort of trigger for off camera flash now

 

[minnnt]

Yeah. I just use cheapy ones. Think they were about £8.

I'm using my SB600 with my Panasonic G6 and GX7. I have Hahnel Combi triggers (for Panasonic and Olympus) and you just put the SB600 onto the receiver and set it to manual mode. It works fine.
