New flashgun for camera trapping coming soon

[J Formstone]

Hi All,
I thought I would give you a heads up of a new speedlight/flashgun coming soon from Camtraptions.
I just stumbled across it on the internet and as of yet there is no information on the website, just a few teasing low light images.
Looks like it could be interesting and may stem the recent surge in prices of used SB 28's on Ebay.
Here's the link: https://store.camtraptions.com/produ...32176875438163
I have no affiliation with Camtraptions, but i thought it would be of interest to my fellow camera trappers.
regards
John.

Thanks for the heads up. I hope it has the same features and specs as the SB28.

I don't know why everyone tries to get the SB-28, the sb-25, sb-28 works as well. And possibly the sb-26 as well.

Thanks for the info John!

I am in the process of testing and comparing a few different models out at the moment. The SB 24, SB25, SB28, and the SB80DX. So far they all seem to work as well as each other. I assume the SB26 would also be the same.

Hi John, Can you update on how the testing of the SB-24, 25, 80DX, and the SB-26 has went for you.
I am hoping for more options as well. The SB-28's have gotten super expensive to get to Canada...
Thanks Daryl

Hi Daryl, I may be putting out a comparison video on You tube sometime, I havnt tried the SB26 but as far as the other models go they all seem to do the job great and I use the SB 28, SB 24, SB25 and the SB80dx on a regular basis. Any tests i do are not very in depth or technical, its the ends result that counts for me.

I have a couple SB24 that I use. They work fine. Just a little larger than the SB28.

Maybe if somebody here knows anybody at Camtraptions they could contact them and see if they could join in on this discussion. I would really like to see more venders participating on this forum.

Update on this flash...

I was in contact with Camtraptions this weekend and they are preparing the website and hope to have the Z1 flash available for sale in the next two weeks.

I have no other details in terms of price, possible weather sealing, etc but those waiting should keep an eye on their website.
