  1. hi,

     

    I'm looking for an on camera flash for my hand held 4x5" portraits -

    any answers?

     

    I find the whole q-flash/lumedyne thing too big for what I'm doing

    (which is about light weight and portability) My ideal is to have on

    shoe (preferably not brackets etc, that becomes too big) flash with a

    guide # of 120 or better 150.

    I want to get to f22 at 5/6 feet for depth of field.

     

    any recommendations??? even old models. I tried the Metz 40MZ series

    (now discontinued) and it was the closest yet, but - I'd like to find

    something better. I don't need auto anything. just lots of power from

    a smallish size.

     

    or - has anyone tried flashbulbs - a small reflector and bulbs might

    work for me. any names to look for?

  2. hi all,

    I'm looking for an on-camera flash that is smallish but quite

    powerful - guide number around 120 -150 genuine for my hand held 4x5"

    shots (want to get to f22 @5ft)

     

    I've used the Metz 40MZ series, pretty good, but find all the Q-flash

    models etc too big. I don't need a lot of bells and whistles, just

    full and half power. but a good guide number, with power for about 20

    or 30 shots.

     

    or has anyone used old flashbulbs - in which case whats a good

    smallish on camera reflector to do this? and what do I look for?

     

    thanks,

    Paul
