Anyone know how hook up strobes (alien bees and pocket wizards) to Polaroid 600 instant cameras? I know I've seen it done at the mall back in the day before digital.
Or if you know of an instant camera that has this feature. I've searched google and didn't come up with much.
Thanks! |

I would imagine the easiest, if not the only way to do it would be to just use the AlienBees as slaves to the Polaroid's flash. In other words, just set the ABs up without any kind of remote attachment, and by default they'll just fire when they "see" the flash from the Polaroid's onboard flash.

| Would the onboard flash itself be overkill? Since you can't change any settings on the camera itself, I'd have to meter the strobes to the exposure of the camera which I believe is 1/60 at f9. |
