I'd still be concerned that even if the prongs were made to line up via an adaptor that the voltages and impedances might not match. I'd need a heck of a guaranty that this adapter was going to match that as well. Considering the value of a DSLR I would be very hesitant. A flash I might risk, but a DSLR I wouldn't. Not to mention all the intended flash functions of this unknown DSLR would not fully function most likely. I'd definitely pop for the right flash if I were you Tania so as to be safe and enjoy the full use of the camera as intended. For example focus assist in dark areas can be invaluable and most likely wouldn't work in the adapter situation. Loss of full TTL compatibility would be dismal as well.
