Wayne,
you probably can't see Mark's esif site because you have to have
your browser settings set just right. Mark runs a direct access site off one of
his own "servers" and likes to be able to control acces in case of people doing
wholesale suckdown etc.
Here is what esif says:
(T32)
Coverage angle: 53° vertical, 74° horizontal (covers picture area of 24mm lens).
Looks like Shipman may be wrong.
If you use wides often the T32 and T45's are pretty nice especially for an on
camera flash of that era. Most flashes at best do 28mm without adapters. One or
two exceptions like the high power Contax, but Metz is typically only 28mm and
Sunpaks are often 35mm. There is a very old thread comparing normalised GN's on
a lot higher power flashes of that era in the archives. The T20 is nice and
compact, but it is not nearly as efficient as the T32 in converting energy to
light once you normalise output for energy stored. Years ago I used to think
the T20 was better than it is, because I misread the esif and thought it
covered wider angle lens.
Like many on this list, my main complaint is limited choices of fixed
power settings and auto aperture settings. If I did not own Metz and Sunpak as
well, I would probably make myself a set of graded diffusers to fill in the
gaps in manual settings. The T32 ND diffusers are an alternative to improve
range although may not give the steps you would like.
Regards,
Tim Hughes
