No
special adapters are necessary when using the Nikon
F2SB Photomic camera with the Flash Unit
BC-7
or
with the Speedlight Unit
SB-2.
Both units mount direct-
lyon
the camera's accessory shoe and they require no
sync cords. For other flash units with ISO-type hot-shoe
contacts, mounting on the camera
is
via
the Flash Unit
Coupler
AS-';
again no sync cord
is
required,
as
the
AS-' provides
fu
II
connection
via
the camera's hot-shoe
contact.
Caution:
When
the
reflex
mirror
is
locked
in
the
up
position,
the
shutter
will
not
synchronize
with flashbulbs
at
speeds
faster
than
1/80
second.
