I'm using a camping signal mirror that I have cut to size and mounted to the SF20 at a 45 degree angle with duct tape. Image can be seen here: http://members.aol.com/noctizeiss/private/Scan43a.jpg Bouncing with the 135 APO, I have found the SF20 to be strong enough to just barely shoot down to f/5.6 with Portra 160 NC, low ceilings and short distances. Bouncing with the Noct wide open, I can shoot at distances up to 25 feet with high ceilings with 160 speed film. Everything improves with increased film speed. For the shots I make, it has proven to be a winner so far, no matter how ugly it looks. /Mitch _________________________________________ Mitch Zeissler E-mail: zeissler@directvinternet.com > -----Original Message----- > Sent: Monday, July 08, 2002 4:27 AM > Subject: Re: [Leica] 135 APO images > > I may have missed an earlier post but can you tell me how you are bouncing > the SF20.
