Chris,
Thanks. There were also a couple other notes about sources for this brass
foil.
FWIW my flash foot was most problematically thin toward the front of the
foot. Sunpak uses very small contacts, which I suppose makes the item easy
to insert, but contact is poor as a result in the OM-2S/4(T) shoe. I'm
most interested now in seeing if the Duo-Sync foot can be improved in the
same way using this foil as a shim. Do keep us posted on your results.
