Matjaz, When I bought my Sto-Fen for my AF360-FGZ, I contacted Sto-Fen and they recommended the OM-PZ4. It isn't a perfect fit, but some electrical tape, rubber band or something like that will make it fit. Michael Matjaz Osojnik wrote: Bruce, can you share which type of Stofen Omni-Bounce

Matjaz, I use the regular one. With TTL, it works great. I seem to get a little more even light than with the Omni-Bounce. Bruce Sunday, March 2, 2003, 2:17:20 PM, you wrote: MO> Thanks Bruce. Actually, I have been also thinking about Lumiquest MO> Softboxes (mini and regular one) as well

Bruce, can you share which type of Stofen Omni-Bounce fits to AF360FGZ head? I'm thinking to order one but there is no mention of that flash on their web pages. Is the same as for the AF500FGZ (model OM-C) or something else? BTW, does somebody know which fits to AF280T head? Thanks, Matjaz

Michael, My guess is that regular TTL can't be used. The other DSLR's out there have had to go to something akin to P-TTL. Older flashes would probably work fine in Auto mode or Manual. Bruce Saturday, March 1, 2003, 12:42:09 PM, you wrote: MC> I agree that the AF360-FGZ has some limitatio

Right on! I've been so happy with Sto-Fen that I have an Omni-Bounce for every flash I own and I seldom shoot without one. Len --- > -Original Message- > From: Bruce Dayton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday, March 01, 2003 4:38 PM > To: Frantisek Vlcek >

Frantisek, My experience with bounce has not been that good. I always end up with shadows under the eyes. I have had MUCH better luck using a Sto-Fen Omni-Bounce or a Lumiquest SoftBox on the flash. For me, the lack of swivel is a non-issue. Bruce Saturday, March 1, 2003, 12:07:15 PM, you

Hi, I am wondering, how many of you who use 360FGZ, lack the swivel feature? For me, the inability to bounce flash from side wall or wall behind me is a major fault, and what about portraits! I hope a new FGZ is in the making, with power of the 500FTZ. I wonder, the Ist D doesn't hav
