    Flash Quandry
    Hey all,

    I am in a quandy for flashes. My goal with the flashes is make shift and on site studio portraits (figure two to three). And event/wedding use.

    I am currently looking at the following:

    Metz 60-CT1
    Metz 60-CT4
    Metz 70 MZ-5
    Metz 70 MZ-4
    Quantum T4D
    Quantum T2D
    Sunpak 120J Auto

    I would be using it with a Contax G1, Contax G2, Olympus E-1, Contax SLR, and Minolta Maxxum 5. So with a crapload of different gear.

    Ideas?

    Thanks all!

    I use the metz 70mz5 myself. I love that flash. I use it w/a mamiya rb67. My exposures are dead on with it, it is powerful and versatile. You can get an adapter to use w/all of the cameras you have and any auto-focus cameras that have an adapter can use the flash for auto-focus. They only downside is the batterys. can't use another companys batterys but they aren't too expensive and they do last a while.
