Just wondering if there was any interest in discussing (bitching about?) strobes that are last years models? Or maybe even much older?
My impression is that the majority of current strobe posts are related to the newest and bestest most expensive latest model strobes (as defined by the various manufacturers Marketing departments). Generally a "Mines Bigger" discussion. A recent "sold" thread of some some older strobes made me sit back and create this thread.
Over the few years that I have paid sparse attention I believe I have seen the following "areas of concern":
- is it digital?
- optical vs wired?
- how much power?
- ttl support?
- duty cycle == overheating (seems like a new topic?)
- I do not know how to use this...
There are also more technical topics to talk about like:
- what are the various wires for my strobe's electrical connector
- electrical ttl converter stuff (bags o fun here...)
- how does optical ttl triggering really work?
Ideas, Feedback, Questions...
