In the Olympus Visionage magazine # 1, p. 16, there is a picture of Patrick
Lichfield taking a portrait photo with a T 8 ringflash and reflector. (BTW,
Visionage # 2 has an article about the OM flash system, including of course
also the various macro flashes).
I have never tried the T8 plus reflector, but this flash is probably much
better for portraits, since you get reflected light, not direct light into
the eye.
