Re: Anyone familiar with these flashes? Old Minolta 3600HS(D) and 5400 HS

I plan on using it with an A7 II to try out flash on digital before buying a Godox TT685s and wireless trigger, want to try it before investing a bunch. This Minolta 5600 HSD is great! It's really advanced despite it's age, even though it doesn't have great wireless capability, I can use it with a TTL cable.

Looking forward to seeing how it comapres to the TT685s, they have about the same guide number.

After looking at all the manuals, I believe that "multiple flash" may refer to using multiple flashes at once but also in Minolta terminology, having the flash fire multiple times during an exposure in order to create multiple images during a slow flash sync exposure.

Multiple flash just means that the camera can trigger more than one flash at the same time , all metered TTL .

Do you also plan on using the flash on an a7 or other digital camera ?
