got myself a "new" second hand camera to replace my Cannon 400d. at 500 euro for the nx210 with a 18-50mm, 30mm lens and 50-200mm lens i thought it was a steal. but now I’m trying to use my old flash (a really old vivitar 2800) on i was using with my cannon camera to work and it does not. im using a cheap aftermarket radio transmitter to bounce the flash upwards in mu miniature home studio. but it seems they nx210 doesn't want to work with any with it.
does any one know of a cheap radio transmitter that will work? or do i need to get also a newer flash with it?
(if not it seems that the i will just put the nx210 on the marked again and get another camera)
I have no issues with my cactus V2 on my Samsung NX20 or NX300. Some triggers work and some don't. A point is Samsung paints the sides of the hot-shoe contacts, you might have to scrape the paint off that fine edge so the flash/transmitter can make a good ground contact. This assumes the hotshoe is grounded, it might not be. As I said, my trigger was no issue.

Not sure if that will help or not. It might be your trigger has contacts that are annoying the Samsung camera. Could try masking off the ones except the center.
