More updates:

\n

I picked up another drive to replace the photo drive and managed to make a second copy of all the files. So one less thing to have nightmares about.

\n

And a happy Cinco de Mayo to all my readers.

About this series:

\n

This series is a time-lagged chronological journey through my off-camera lighting. I write about stuff that happens months after it really happens so I can get it organized and also to make sure that I don't writing a glowing review of something that turns out to be a piece of crap later on.

\n

My goal with my off-camera setup is to be inexpensive (but not cheap) and portable and easy to deal with. It also has to work with my largely film-centric lifestyle.

\n

The continuing story of flash triggering:

\n

If I were using modern cameras and spent a lot of money on hardware, this wouldn't be a problem. But I can't rely on optical triggers and such. I've found that my Canon TX, after the CLA, and my G7 will both reliably trigger the hotshoe. My 383 Super (I lost one after my little accident) will reliably fire off of the hotshoe slaves. The Quantaray MS-1 will reliably trigger on it's own but it stopped working. My Sunpack Digital Flash will sometimes trigger off of it's built-in slave and sometimes needs an external trigger to work, but I've already described how it sucks.

\n

I need a new 90mm lens for my RB67, so all I've got is a 50mm, which is not too photogenic because in medium format terms, that's a wide-angle. So I really want to know for sure that the next 90mm lens I buy will have a fully reliable flash triggering port. To do this, I really want to do is fix any other wiring problems once and for all so that I can be assured that it's not the normally flakey connectors that are causing the problems.

\n

The way I see things, hotshoes are reliable. PC cords are not. And Sunpack screwed up the way they do their plugs just enough that you can't just plug into the side of a 383 Super without knowing exactly what you are doing. So, I am quite comfortable with 1/4\" and 1/8\" cables because I can solder replacement connectors myself if they break. Either way, it adds up real fast to get all of the little bits.
