Can I use the HF-DC1 flash with my SX40 HS?

Lynn I'm not sure what you want to do with the HF-DC1 but this little unit will work with any camera because it senses the flash from your camera not like in the old days when these type units were attached to a camera via a cable. You can also make the flash go off manually. You can also adjust the intensity of the flash (min-Mid-Max) but remember the brighter the flash the more drain on the battery. Cheer!

As I have seen this unit work, it uses the flash of light from your camera to trigger it's own flash. Thus the time difference is minute, because the camera's flash reaches the unit at the speed of light. I assume it will work with any camera with a flash on it, as I have used it with my Olympus with no problems.

I believe that it should work with a SX40 HS, I have used mine with several different canon powershot/elph models so it should work with a canon SLR as well... (worst case, it doesn't work for you, you can simply return it)... ;-) It is a very handy little wireless flash to keep around for those more formal (i.e.- bigger) night shots or large indoor shots... I only use mine occasionally but it is invaluable when I need it.

You can use it w/ any camera that has a flash. The unit's flash is actuated by any other flash. Hence this unit can only be used as a SUPPLEMENTAL flash. NB: I loved mine for about a year until it died & Canon offered no repair or replacement. (They seem to consider it more of a toy...)

http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/standard_display/PS_Advantage_AccLarry - Here is a link from Canon's web site. They have two units now. One for cameras with a 28mm wide angle lens and the HF-DC2 for those with a 24mm wide angle. Same power. Your model is not one on those listed as an EXCEPTION. Thus, one of these models will work with your SX-40HS depending on how wide your lens opens up at it's widest. Good little flash for crowds, dark rooms, and most anything past 6-8 ft. away. The little built in flashes on ELPHs like I have just don't have enough horsepower sometimes. It is a good deal to have around. Get you one. I like mine that I have had for a good four years. http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/standard_display/PS_Advantage_AccLarry - Here is a link from Canon's web site. They have two units now.

I am not sure. Note that that amazon sells another adapter ring for the sx40 that is slightly cheaper than the one for the sx50. You might try to get in touch with Digital Goja, Amazon's supplier of these particular rings.

Hi Jake, I bought Fuji HS10 in December 2010 and use it frequently. The external flash don't work, because HS10 had one electric pin conector for flash (simple flash conector). Filters and other accessories probably work.Sorry my bad English. Regards, Luiz - Belo Horizonte - Brazil

I used it in a Cannon SX40. The quick reference guide said "use a SDHC card only". Give a check on the Canon site, the FAQ"s have info on your question-"SD / MMC Card Compatibility Information"

The flash works with my Sony A65. It is designed for the Sony hot shoe and should work with the Sony HX400.

I am not sure. I use it on a Sony CX-160 video camera at 1920x1080p @60fps max resolution and it takes it like it like a champ. My still camera is a Canon 10MP and it's video and stills works just fine. Don't know about the SX40 however. It should work. I use it for video of action shots and nature shots. Never gave any troubles yet.

No but it should work the same as it does with the hs50 as they both take the same model shutter release

I think it will work on an SL1. The hot shoe mount of 90EX flash is standard. It's a slight improvement from a built in flash. You can also use it externally or with a flash extension for a more creative way of lighting.

it comes with an adapter but im not sure if that will make it fit on a sx40

Yes, it does work for the SX50. I took the one I had on my SX40 and used it. It's still a problem with the flash when you use the full wide angle, throwing a shadow at the bottom of the frame, but otherwise works pretty well. As others have said, make sure you put it on securely.

Yes. Be sure to read your manual, but you can use your flash and anything else you want provided it's supported by the specific function.

Honestly I doubt you can. They are pretty specific as to what they can be used on. I've tried them on several different flash units and from what I can tell, they only work on the units specified.

Yes, the WR-C100 works with the Canon SX50 HS Powershot. For further assistance, please email support@satechi.com. Thank you, Satechi Technical Support

Good morning;Yes you can use the NB-10L battery in your Canon SX50 HS. It's a stronger battery than what comes with the camera.

no.. i checked and it says the S5000 only takes xD cards.. if you had the S7000 then you'd be able to use a compact flash
