ecliptique Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Hello, last week I remembered that I had an old Sunpak 120j in my cupboards. It appears that this flash is perfect for UV photography without any modification !!!!! The standard set was sell with QF30 lamp. This lamp is totally uncoated !!There is another optional lamp named QF30UV : this one is coated to stop UV and not the reverse. I've tested with and without tube protection glass : no difference on result. The light is very nice and I use it with my two modified Nikon SB24. Below, some samples with this set : Nikon D800 with Schott N-WG280 inside, Cambo Actus, EL nikkor 105mm and Baader U filter. I suppose that it's possible to buy low price second hand Sunpak120j. And lamps are not discontinued. Laurent Ps : I forgot to say that I use stacking method to increase depth of field, but it's not the subject of this post.. Link to comment

Andy Perrin Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Gorgeous! I am starting to think about getting a flash. I'm tired of waiting 20 seconds in the sun for a picture. Link to comment
