Time machine can measure flash speed
Hi,
Just jumping in on this thread and am new to OPF as well. I have a little box called the Time Machine which can measure flash duration. This box will control either flash or camera based on sensor input and do a bunch of other cool stuff as well. I think it cost me a few hundred and is made in California by Mumford Electronics. You need their high speed light sensor but it works well.
I'm going to have to measure my profoto flash units to see if they are faster at full power or low power. I do recollect that they are fastest at low power so I would be surprised if the Elinchroms are the opposite but that would be interesting.
I'll have to also check on the Broncolor - that would certainly be a nice feature to be able to adjust flash speed.
