TELEFLASH
TELEFLASH is an extremely useful accessory that adds time saving and·
picture-taking versatility to the professional or advanced amateur photog-
rapher's equipment. It makes it possible to use multiple flashJamps without
connecting them to the camera. TELEFLASH can best be described as a B-C
powered slave unit.
Some of the advantages of TELEFLASH can be listed here; in addition, how-
ever, many photographers have been able to develop special short cuts and
techniques for flash illumination by using this equipment.
