  1. <p>I'm in the same position like you are, but I got my RZ67 pro II about 15 months back. Mine came with the 180 and since I got the 110 and the 65 (non-ULD). For indoor shots (non-studio) I use the 110 a lot, except when there are a lot of models and need the wide angle. The 110 is the reason I went with the RZ instead of the RB, it's nice to have such a fast lens and although a little tighter in able of view than the average 'normal' (I guess the 90 is the real normal) it's incredibily versatile. The 180 is beautiful for outdoors, larger studios and perfect for tight headshots. Harder to shoot without a tripod; the 65 and the 110 I use handheld to about 1/60 - 1/30th of a second. I did get the grip and I recommend it. After a day shooting with this beast you'll feel like having had a day at the fitness center!<br>

    PS -I don't know which workflow you'll be using but I've had quite some troubles getting scans from fuji films right, and Kodak is perfect right away.</p>

    <p>Some examples perhaps? :)<br>

  2. <p>I'm afraid that it's probably the cactus triggers that miss the sync. There's a reason they don't have a great reputation, and why the pro's use the expensive pocket wizzards. I have the previous version of the cactus triggers, but I've switched back to cables and optical triggers. With digital you can retake the shot, but on film it's just a waste.</p>
  3. <p>Well, it's just that they're really cheap (15$ online), really small and actually, weak. When I'm shooting in a pub or something I don't like to bring a large flash, as my K10d is large as well, and weighs a lot to. I don't really like the pop-up flash, I've tried 'modifying' it, with a black filmcan and such, but I'm not really pleased with the result. Another thing that looks nice to experiment with is that there's a version of the flash with little gels attached to it. I've already googled it, but no avail...</p>
  4. <p>Hi,</p>

    <p>I've been thinking about buying on of these, I have other flash guns, but they're too powerful. I'd use it just to get a little extra light when in a pub or something. I also like the 'vignetted' effect.<br>

    The thing I'd like to know, besides my film cameras, would it be safe to use it on my pentax DSLR, regarding the trigger voltage? It can't be to high or I'll fry it... Does anybody has an idea about it, or maybe somebody has a flash like it, and a voltage meter?</p>

    <p>thanks a lot.</p>
