Pardon the return to this thread. I found the copy of National
Geographic, October 1978, among my books in the attic. Looking closely at the
image, I believe I know about the camera. He has a motor drive which has a
pistol grip attached. That drive unit (I own one) can be triggered either
from the grip or the pistol grip attachment which held the batteries. The
cord is, or has been, the confusion. The coiled cord is a PC cord which is
plugged into the PC socket on the side of the camera. The flash obviously
must be elsewhere or it trips a number of units to get the picture.
Happy new year...IMHO this is worthless information.

Talking about the National Geographic I opened my January 2000 issue at
pages 122 / 123 and wondered what technique was used to capture the
submerged sting ray, the yacht's upper rigging, and the clouds all in
perfect focus. In my opinion this is one of the most outstanding photos I
have seen in the NG for many years. [The one on 118 / 119 is perhaps the
most gawdy to have graced NP for a long long time!]
