Hello I just purchased a graflex flash handle and some bulbs but they have not arrived yet.
I am hoping to use the flash in bulb mode to light some nocturnal scenes.
I would like to use #5 bulbs for the foreground and I've also ordered some much more powerful #50 bulbs for the areas further away.
My question pertains to the Edison style bulbs. I know the handle can take bayonet bulbs in the reflector it ships with but it can also take Edison screw mount bulbs if I remove the reflector.
I haven't seen a proper reflector for the Edison bulbs though, so I'm going to fabricate one myself. Are they available anywhere?
I would also like to know how difficult it is to switch between the bayonet reflector and the exposed Edison screw. |

What you are looking for is the 7" reflector. Should be very easy to find, there are lots of them out there.
And switching between 5" and 7" reflectors is a pretty simple procedure. |
