However you have to be careful about the trigger voltage the non-Nikon units use. Nikon cameras use a low voltage for triggering the flash. Some of the non-Nikon units use a high voltage trigger which, while they will work on the camera, will eventually burn out the camera flash circuitry. If you happen to have a high voltage unit and want to use it on a Nikon, all is not lost. There are voltage adapters available that will make flash and camera compatible. You can lookup your flash units on the internet for the operating specifications and if they are compatible with Nikon cameras. If you need a voltage adapter you can find it on the internet as well. Hope this helps.</p></blockquote><p></p>
