Olympus OM-System T8 Ring Flash 2 with T power control unit 1. Rare to find unit.

Used in combination with the T power control 1, this ring flash is highly effective for macrophotography , medical photography , etc.

The unit comprises a flash head with a guide number of 8 at ISO 100 in meters and a reflector. OTF auto or Manual flash can be selected. Instead of being aimed directly at the subject , the flash emission is first bounced off the reflector ring assuring exceptionally soft lighting effects. Two different reflectors are included , the 200mm diameter reflector 1 and the 150mm diameter Reflector 2 . When the subject is smaller in size than the reflector used, completely shadow less lighting can be obtained. In dim light situations , the built-in modeling lamp can be used when a external power source is attachted.
