Harrison, I remember last year preparing for a job and testing three sync cables before I left and none would work on any pack when I got on location. Finally used an on-camera flash to fire the studio strobes. I never could get those cables to work and threw them away. Wanna talk about Polaroid backs? I have 4x5 (2), medium format (2) and one 35mm. And all seem prone to jam, gum up and generally malfunction, despite regular cleaning. I even carry a soldiering iron. About the only tool I don't carry is a hammer--I'm afraid I might be tempted to use it with malice aforethought. Donal Philby San Diego
