bought a 2nd hand Sunpak 622. That thing is humongous.
However, it's not going to be auto, so need to know how to use it in manual mode.
I've a rf transmitter and receiver, so it's not attached to my E1 camera directly, except through the wireless Tx/Rx.
Any recommendations on the literature on how to use the Sunapak in manual mode ? or maybe some online manual will do. I hate to do trial and error with the camera's aperture to get it right. While I can accept that it's not going to be point and shoot, I expect to get the right exposure on the second try, without fiddling through the many combinations of aperture and shutter settings.
my only regret is not buying the infra red flash option with this flash. Think of the opportunities in Marine Parade in the deep night when the cars are rocking. I've also got a good telephoto lens. :angel:
how powerful is this thing anyways ? how far does it go ?
came with bare bulb, diffuser, telephoto and normal flash options. What does the bare bulb do ? in what situations does the bare bulb comes in handy ? recycle time is very fast compared to my Olympus FL36. Also has a Lumiquest Midi Bounce to go with it.
so how do I use this bazooka ?:dunno:
