20 Most Recent Quantaray PZ-1 DSZ for Nikon TTL Flash Questions & Answers

There is no problem with the trigger voltage, which I assume is your primary concern. You may not get all of the features you would with a Nikon flash, but you should be able to use it with the D60 just as you use it with the N80.

Go to photo.net for a more comprehensive answer on this unit. But you should have a "slave" setting. May be called an optical trigger. You will need another flash to set it off though.

Yes and no. It will work fine as a manual flash, putting the burden of figuring out correct exposure on your shoulders. It will work fine in the automatic modes on a Nikon camera.

Quantaray makes a Canon version of the flash which will work in the automatic modes on the Rebel XSi.

Having the same problem with the Quantaray 7500A and my Sony Alpha 200. I either have to go to full manual or overexposed. I've sent off a few emails to Ritz but still haven't gotten a reply.

Suggestion: Before to spend any money in this direction, try to clean the electric contacts and be sure that batteries are fresh and fully charged (a voltmeter can help).

Hey Guys -

I too had a similar situation and was told to contact Ritz Camera (I Googgled it). I also contacted the following company and finally got a manual:

Apparently, my flash, QUANTARAY PZ-1 POWER ZOOM Flash unit , was sold under another name, PZ4000 Af. Hope this helps. If you have the same unit as me, conatct me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to send you the manual that was provided me.

parts for items like this are virually none existant. The normal thing to do is to replace the whole item. However if it is of recent manufacture then try the customer support team at Nikon

Fixya does not provide sales services.

Return to vendor for repair or replacement

Any particular tune ?

Time for a CLA. The focus mechanism will is usually filled with grease, makes it smooth turning, if that grease separates it can make things difficult. Also, it could be something is misaligned with the helicoid. Here is a YouTube video that will explain how they work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_Lji91nIos

You need to contact local dealer , Or if you have the Box, contact who made it. Or see if Manual can be downloaded from Product Web Site

Hi Nicolas. Normally, this problem comes from a loose screw and roller that makes the mechanism gets stucked.

Sorry, you have not said where your country of origin nor which lens needs repair, thus we cannot make any suggestions. There are numerous repair shops around the world. Doing a Google/Bing/Yahoo search will provide you repair shops; one may be close to you. Also, depending on the lens you may be better of replacing it with a more updated better quality one; just a thought.
