What would be a good flash unit to use with my RB67? I have a Nikon SB600 but It does not have an old style sync port.
...and the SB600 can be used in "auto" mode. It uses the same sort of sensor as a plain old fashioned Vivitar 285HV.
When you are using the rb, you will be a couple of aperture numbers south of what your 35mm equipment uses.
I use my Vivitar 285 with mine. Sitting on top of the left hand grip.
Stevbe.
Well, I do agree that the Strobonars did not have any kind of an "Auto" mode, but they did put out some light.
It is custom, 'norm', to specify guide numbers for ISO 100.Guide numbers change with the film.

The Hanimex may indeed be a white elephant.
I would look for one of the many (and cheap) Metz 45 series units. The basic 45 CT-1 will do very well for your RB.
And they are really dirt cheap (the last one i bought, used, set me back (approx.) US$ 15).

Better think that over once again.custom and norm yes, But they still change with the film.
If the user wants to know what the GN is with his ISO 800film the GN for ISO100 doesn't help him.
That's because the amount of light it effectively throws onto the subject depends on the conditions.A GN is after all a GN.
