grunzweig photography Posted March 12, 2001 Share Posted March 12, 2001 Have any of the members tried to use the P67 outdoors using a shoe flash and trying to do a fill by dialing down the flash power? Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill baker Posted March 12, 2001 Share Posted March 12, 2001 Sure, no problem varying ambient/flash ratio using my 67II/Metz 40 MZ-3i/SCA 3701 module combination. I set the Metz on auto synch and then override the f/stop setting on the flash to get the ratio I want. You can even program in a flash mode setting that would do this automatically but I haven't bothered to learn how. The real problem, as always, is working around the slow flash sync speed of the 67. The SCA 3701 will do second-curtain sync with a 67II, but you lose another stop of shutter speed, and 1/15th gets pretty ridiculous most of the time. But at least the motion blurs look realistic.
