Sorry, I should have mentioned. The flash was external and mounted on a
bracket of some kind. Even my Sunpak flashes accept a mains power
adaptor. Do newer flashes have them (eg AF500FTZ)?

It looked quite big and expensive. I was too far away to be able to tell
anything more but it was definitely not a consumer-grade camera.
The place he was from is pretty well-known down here so I presume they
can afford good gear, and that they know what they're doing. At my
graduation about 2 years ago they took all the pictures on film without using
a flash (which is good because I dislike flash). I'd be interested to see just
how those prints come out.
