Carl,

I tried using studio strobes with a Sony Mavica, only to find out the hot
show on top of the camera is a proprietary hot shoe that does not work with
standard adaptors... you have to buy a Sony flash. I would hope other brands
do not do the same.

workable, but true direct manual settings are much better for copy work.
It's also nice to have real pc-cord flash sync for copying flat reflective
art with studio strobes. I don't know if those features are available at
$400. Be sure to look into whatever model has just been discontinued, if it
has the right features it will be a good deal.---Carl >>
