Dear peers

The title says everything.
Said differently : how would you connect a modern strobe, which can only be triggered by fiber optic, to an Old Nikonos V or Nikonos RS analaog camera.

How do convert electric into fiber optic directly from the outer N5 plug?

This converter from Retra might work, particularly if you are using a Retra strobe:

Retra UWT

E-Opto converter

The E-Opto converter is a simple and reliable optical trigger that generates optical signals from electric input. The E-Opto converter comes with pre-installed batteries that will last for more than 1

You would need to confirm your Nikonos is wired the same way , it should work with other strobes on manual, but as you will note it is not guaranteed to work with strobes other than Retra.
