Title: Leaf VALEO 22 and Thunderbolt
Post by: Lorenzo Pierucci on December 27, 2013, 09:28:11 am

Hi everybody!

Silly question about a more then a decade old sensor:

Leaf Valeo 22, did anybody use it with thunderbolt on a macbook Air? i use the thunderbolt to firewire 800 adaptor, and then 800 to 400... but it won't turn on. Fix orange light and no fan. I saw people that actually have this setup, and work.

Any other experience will be great help.

Thanks guys and happy new year!

Hi Lorenzo, you need a powered repeater to ensure the back gets enough power to run properly.

This can be ordered from your local Mamiya Leaf dealer.

BR,
