Yesterday for no apparent reason I was just about to go upstairs when I saw my two Neewer NW985 flashguns standing there on their stands on my printer, and decided to grab my Nikon D50 and Manfrotto 190 tripod (which were both nearby) and set them up with a blue pop-up background (orig for video but too shiny to use) against the wall and a light stand for one of the flash (The other on the stairs) and shot some self-portrait headshots of me there and then

I’d forgotten how to self-timer on the D50, I used to use the D50 in simple home studio situations all the time nearly 20 years ago (but with Nikon flashguns (SB-24, SB-27, one on optical trigger the other cabled to a PC-socket hotshot adaptor) or also Metz CT-60 for main, or for serious stuff, a varying number of Elinchrom flash units (still have about four left over with soft boxes etc))

I haven’t done any of this for years – and all I was doing was going upstairs when I just grabbed the flashguns, then camera, then tripod and so on

How to use a Modern Flash Gun with a Leica M3, M2 and M1 - By Phong Nguyen

Photographers using Leica M film cameras often say that they do not need flash and prefer to shoot in ambient light. However, if you go through websites related to Leica, the subject of how to use a flash on a Leica M film camera often appears, particularly M3 and M2. The reason is very simple: the Leica M3 and M2 do not have a hot shoe and although they have flash sockets for both electronic and lamp flashes, these sockets are not international standard and therefore it’s more difficult to find the necessary original accessories for shooting it with flash.
