I cant seem to get my Nikon SB_50DX Sppedlight to work with my new nikon d70s, is there a compatabillity issue between this body and this flash or is there a soecific setting i need, right now im trying it on: Programmed/Auto Mode - ISO 250, with dynamic autofocus. Is there something im missing, i go to take a shot and the flash symbol just blinks and i cant take anything. Let me know if there is a fix for this, thanks!
someone will correct me if I am wrong here but i think the D70 series cameras will only work properly with the new CLS speedlights like the SB600 and SB800

here is a little info from the nikon site , but I do not think it is exhaustive tho

I just got it to work by setting the flash in full manual, but it says it will work in ttl, but i cant seem to get a ttl mode on my flash to work, hmmm
