Thoughts on Flash Bulbs

[P3D Bob Maxey <BMAXEY@xxxxxxx>]

Please, please, please, someone else confirm what I
have to say about flashbulbs Vs. electronic flash.
Actually, you do not need to confirm. I am simply right
about this post.

I use an old bulb flash, Yes, made by Realist and
flashbulbs. NOTHING BETTER REGARDLESS OF THE
QUALITY OF FLASH IMAGES YOU ARE NOW TAKING.

Even light, more than enough power even at F22. And I
dont give a rat's you know what what you have read or
your experience, or how good your images are, or
what expert you talk to, or what over paid fashion
photographer's seminar you went to, or anything else -
flash bulbs are better, PERIOD. End of Story. 

Hard to find, yes. Expensive to use, sometimes. When I
worked for a dealer here in Salt Lake City, I bought
hundreds of boxes of all types of flash bulbs. Even the
odd ones (Ever see a number 5 Infrared bulb?). 

So, use electronic flash because that is all most of you
have ready access to, but consider bulbs. Learn to use
them. If you want to go older, talk me out of my flash
pan and generator. Powder nor included.
