After my chat with my dad I had when I was out in the garden earlier (see this thread) he found me a couple of spare flash guns he doesn't use. One being the type you mount on the tripod mount on the camera and have a wiggly cable to attach it to the camera (of which the D40X has no socket for) and the other being a 'normal' top mounting one.
The top mounting one can be set as Nikon, Canon, Pentax and a couple other brands. I set it to Nikon, but when I put the shutter button to focus it still pops up the built in flash (well, tries to), I'm guessing I do have to use a proper one designed for DSLRs and not a 10 year old one?
