As much as I love IR, it doesn't all have to be landscapes and flowers.

    Thanks Skippy,
    Yes the Sunpak 622 has several detachable heads, one of which is an IR head. It's a real IR beacon, but what one learns is that IR falls off very quickly.

    Hi Skippy,



    If you view the EXIF the shot was at 1/400th of a second at F3.5, also the Sunpak is a very fast flash going from 1/500th of a second to 1/30000th of a sec.



    I tend to use it in a manual mode and force a very fast flash and in a dark environment like the club I was shooting in, a fast flash will stop motion even on slower shutter speeds


    BTW, here's the spec sheet on the 622.
