flashing
My move into the past continues. I received some Press 25Bs (blue for daylight color balance) and a couple of C batteries and did some flash shots last night with the Brownie. I think it's been 45 years since I used flashbulbs. The Brownie seems to take 120 roll film fine which will make life a little easier than having to reroll 120 onto 620 spools. Thes bulbs do seem to put out some serous light. And they do smoke. More testing to ensue.
There is even older flash technology that Blaine found a site on. I'm not tempted. Flashbulbs are better, in some cases, than electronic flash. Flash powder is just too scary.
