Subject: Re: Ringflash


I did formerly have a low power ringfl;ash that I sold due its limitations.
It worked on a 35mm reflex but was too weak to be usable on a monorail
camera where the working distances are larger.  I have just acquired a Nikon
SR2 ringflash dating from about 1975.  There is no power pack. Is it
feasible to get it connected to one of my studio flashes? This might give me
more light output and a range of fractional outputs up to max.Alternatively
should I just get rid of it?
