M6 only with little flash. In current issue of Nat. Geographic traveler is article by him and article about him and at least on photo (I love it) taken with flash + ambient. We worked for years as photographers with auto flashes before the TTL stuff happened. The thyristor is pretty amazing. Just work your f/stop and flash setting for your desired fill. The G1, at least, does not let you dial down the flash and is thus pretty brutal. Better with thyristor. Donal Philby San Diego
