Strange but true -- Vivitar 550FD-N

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Konica 35mm SLRs : One Thread

Here's a good one. I bought a Vivitar 550FD flash (small) dedicated for Nikon for use on my Nikons. I plugged it into my Konica FT-1 and voila! The aperture (AE) mode switched to f/5.6. When I turned on the flash and it was ready, the camera switched to f/11 (in auto, 2-20 ft at 1000 asa). Not fully compatible, but pretty close. Anyone know abouyt using Nikon-dedicated flashes on Konicas?
