For Sale- SunPak DX-8R Auto RingLight system $110 inc. shipping
Very good condition with all factory boxes, carry pouch, several lens diameter ring adapters, flash modules for Canon and Nikon probably film-based bodies but may work on digital units. Canon module is already mounted on the unit. The one box says "Olympus OT-1D" module but it contains the Nikon module shown with instruction sheet, the Olympus one was sold earlier. Uses 4 AA batteries or an optional AC adapter unit. No rust in battery container. Used some years ago for cosmetic photos in office. Thanks!
Except for not having a "point" light, it's the same as the Lester Dine unit. I have several of the Dine units that I use for my macro shooting. I have one of these as well which I bought dirt cheap (about $25) but it was sold as-is as they said it wouldn't power up. A little Deoxit in the battery compartment and it's as good as new and has all the accessories. The interchangeable feet will change the camera system that it can be used on but there may be issues of it not firing the unit as they were designed for film not digital. The camera can not communicate with the unit as the info transmitted isn't what the camera expects. I used to tape over the extra pins but then I replaced the feet on mine with the single pin STD-1D module so as to avoid any issues with it firing. I also checked out the trigger voltage and it's fine too. The variable power feature is a godsend.
Lester Dine was big back in the day!
