Hi all, I recently received a box of old flash units from an estate sale. Low price, but mostly junk. There was one unit, however, that looked like a reasonable non-TTL auto-thyristor flash. The model is Fujica Autostrobo 300x, and it appears to have a second contact on the shoe for dedicated use with Fujica 35mm SLRs. It's about the same size as a Sunpak 383 or 443/444. It has a tilt head (but no swivel), guide number 100 (in feet), one auto mode, and three manual modes. It also has an odd-looking tiny second flashlamp on the front of the unit (not on the tilt head). This small lamp fires a low-power flash simultaneous with the full-power flash on the tilt head. Has anyone ever seen one of these units? Any idea if it's worth more than a couple dollars? I may try to clean it up and sell it on eBay if it's worth the trouble. Thanks in advance for any clues on this one. Bill Peifer Rochester, NY - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
