That is an interesting idea... I have one of those flashes but have not used it in a while, also an old Olympus "safe synch" device which is supposed to protect newer camera form high voltage of old flashes. the AF360FGZ that I use has the same setting, but I don't know if that flash at 1/16th would be powerful enough.

Just a thought, but the old Vivitar 285s used to come with fractional manual flash settings down to 1/16th power. That would give you up to 16 flashes as fast as you could fire the shutter. The old flash is not safe to put in the hot shoe, but you could trigger it with radio slave. The old classic 273s had a accessory Vari-power module that let you do something similar, I think.

I worked on it yesterday with mixed results - still have a lot of stacks to go through. But here are the first: http://www.markcassino.com/b2evolution/blog6.php/2013/07/06/stack-focusing-dragonflies-in-the-field All taken with Pentax K-5 and A*200 f4. No flash since I needed to grab a fast bunch of images to stack, and no way could the flash keep up. All of these photos got flaws but maybe on a less windy day this will work out. C&C appreciated.
