Vivitar 2000 for slave

[GPo]

Was checking around for a viv 2000 for my slave mod. Found some but they say they are specific to certain cameras, nikon, canon etc. Can I be correct in assuming that this dosen't matter and any viv 2000 will do for the slave flash project ?

Thanks

I don't know about all of them but if it is the one at walmart you can modify it. I used as many here have a Vivitar 2000. Here is a link to a pic of mine. MC.

In the East Texas vernacular, I think they're pulling your leg. I've seen them advertised on eBay as being for particular (different) cameras, but they're all the same part number, either 231544C or 231544W, the latter being refurbished.

Some flash units are designed for particular cameras to take advantage of capabilities like zoom, variable duration flash, etc., but the Vivitar 2000 is about as basic as you can get in that regard.

Thanks people,
Maybe they are referring to a hot shoe connection of certain cameras ??
The flashes I am referring to are from "Henrys" on ebay.

Do these flashes look like they would work for a slave flash ?
Now sure what the difference is.
