Walt, the man-who-has-everything-OM does not
have a Polaroid back? Shame on you ;-)
The T8 / T32 combo will work fine. Just keep
in mind, that the T32 is 16 times stronger /
brighter than the T8, that is 5 stops. Since
the distance of the T8 is determined by your
setup (lens front to subject), the placing of
your T32 makes the ratio. Placing it as close
would give a strong T32 (5 stops brighter) and
a "weak" T8 fill. Putting the T32 further away
gives you a more pleasant ratio. Or use a
diffuser on your T32, or a bounce reflector,
or ...
Happy experimenting. Keep notes!
