Re: Conflicting Instructions!
Just a minor detail to the good info provided by Paul and Sam:
>> It also says "Always set your camera for
>> flash (bulbs, I think) at 1/25! Isn't that kind of slow??
With modern electronic flashes, shutter speed has little to do with
exposure (unless if you are balancing flash with ambient light). The
reason they recommended 1/25 is that the *flash bulbs* need more
time to deliver their full light output. With a modern flash you can
set your Realist at any speed (even 1/200 - I usually use 1/100 or
1/50). The flash duration is very short (1/1000 or less).

Some people can afford it!
