Lutz,

try the vivitar 2800/2600. David Alan Harvey turned me on to this a couple
of years ago, and it works great.

Subject: [Leica] Automatic fill-in flash for low-level non-TTL
photography...?


Hi fellows,

Can anybody point out a flash that works as an automatic fill-in flash 
for low-level non-TTL photography (aka: shoot with the "classic" M6 at 
400 ASA, f: 2.0, don't spoil the available light situation but just fill 
in the foreground)?

I have an Olympus T32 which is a terrific performer, reliable, versatile 
and sturdy with a choice of three stops (@ 400ASA: 8/11/16) in "normal 
automatic" mode - but just too strong for the purpose as described above.

Ideally the flash has a tilting reflector to allow bouncing. Can anybody 
give me a hint?

Please answer me directly, since I'm momentarily cut off from the digest. 
Thanx!

Lutz
