But certainly NOT too big to just hook up to the camera with a sync cord or certainly slave. Studio strobes are for sure in this category but there are lots of in betweens. The Quantum Q flash is one. My 200C Norman is another. Have somebody else hold it or put it on a stand. I'm getting as intrigued as hell with the idea of someone somewhere in the crowd with my slaved flash! Hope it's not abolished!!! Mark Rabiner In a pinch put it on a big bracket. Not elegant but you can still shoot with your camera. Portland, Oregon USA http://www.rabiner.cncoffice.com/
