Re: Peter Davis seeks simplest, highest-tech twin, flashable P/S rig.
I have seen a nifty twin Ricoh P/S that Alan Lewis uses.   It even
features a hinged bar for portrait or horizontal format.  My best
recollection was that yes, it uses flash.  Alan can confirm.

The sad part is that Ricoh no longer puts the electronic connection
on their cameras.  According to Alan, they used to put it on all
their P/S cameras right down to the cheapest model.  And these gems
are reportedly difficult to find on the used market, at least 'round
here.  Maybe you'll have better luck in your area, or perhaps someone
knows of another suitable model.

(I don't remember whether this twin setup is on Alan's web page or not.)
